GMP credits big batteries for saving money during heat wave
http://www.wcax.com/content/news/GMP-credits-big-batteries-for-saving-money--488482971.html
MILTON, Vt. (WCAX) While other power companies were telling customers to reduce how much energy they used during the recent heat wave, Green Mountain Power was focused on a different tactic.
For years, GMP has worked on creating a system of stored energy to rely on during peak energy days, and GMP Vice President Josh Castonguay says it worked like planned.
Castonguay says to save money in Vermont, power was pulled from 500 Tesla Powerwalls, as well as energy storage facilities in Rutland and Panton.
Think of it like a game. GMP waits until the moment of peak usage and then sends out all their stored energy to the grid. That reduces the need for dirty and expensive backup generators to be brought online.
Castonguay says the battery strategy paid off.
"All three of those combined, during that peak hour that's happened this summer, are the equivalent of that, basically worth up to half a million dollars for customers and it's about the equivalent of taking 5,000 homes off the grid during that one hour of the peak," he said.
Tesla Powerwall owner Mike Wheeler says he watches an app on his phone to see how much energy is stored inside his Powerwall. The Powerwall is basically a big battery that holds the energy generated by Wheeler's solar panels.

During the heat wave, Green Mountain Power was using almost all of the battery's reserves. When he checked his phone, he says the Powerwall was about 80 percent drained.
"I assumed at the time that GMP was actually harvesting the energy from our Powerwall for our air conditioning needs of the grid," said Wheeler.
While Wheeler is watching his app, GMP crews are watching the ISO-New England system for a predicted peak, or when people are using a lot of energy. This year's biggest day of usage so far was July 5.
"When New England hits that peak, every state has to share in the cost of the bulk system. So everything, each state, each utility, can do to lower the peak during that time is what saves that money," said Castonguay.
He says customers will soon see the cost-savings from using the batteries.
So far, 500 Tesla Powerwalls are installed around Vermont with 1,500 more expected to go out. Castonguay says they'll be ready if another big peak pops up this summer.

Competition is coming!
EVs that travel 600 miles on a charge? New battery breakthrough makes it possible.
http://redgreenandblue.org/2018/07/14/evs-travel-600-miles-charge-new-battery-breakthrough-makes-possible/
It seems like just yesterday we did a story about Hyundai investing in US solid state battery company Ionic Materials. Oh, wait. That actually was yesterday! And yet here it is tomorrow already and there is fresh news on the battery front. Researchers at Norway’s Department of Energy Technology (IFE) in Kjeller say they have perfected a way to substitute silicon for the graphite commonly used in the anodes of lithium ion batteries.
By Steve Hanley Cleantechnica

The discovery will lead to batteries that can power an electric car for 600 miles or more, the researchers claim. “You can say we have found the X factor we’ve been looking for. This has enormous potential and is something scientists around the world are trying to make,” says IFE research director Arve Holt, according to a report by Bergens Tidende.

Pure silicon has ten times more capacity than graphite but it loses capacity faster than graphite. The researchers have found a way to mix silicon with other elements to create an anode that is stable and long lasting and which has three to five times higher capacity than a conventional graphite anode. Laura Brodbeck of Kjeller Innovation works to commercialize research results from IFE. She says the new technology is already being tested by both material manufacturers and battery manufacturers to determine if it can be marketed successfully.

“In order to reach consumers, the new material and batteries with the technology must be manufactured on an industrial scale. This is something we are working with together with our partners, “says Brodbeck, who declined to name the companies involved with testing the new technology. She did say that some Norwegian companies are involved as well as companies in other countries. “Kjeller Innovation and IFE are actively working to make the technology available as quickly as possible and we aim to enter into a production agreement with one or more players during the project period,” says Brodbeck.
“We have tested that it works on a lab scale with good results. Now that we have received support from the Research Council in the FORNY2020 program, we will test it further with international industry partners and see if it works in their industrial processes. The project that will focus on bringing the new material to the market — we call it SiliconX — is becoming very exciting to work towards such big goals together with Kjeller Innovation,” says Marte O. Skare, one of the researchers in the project.

Professor Ann Mari Svensson of the Department of Materials Technology at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology finds the results of the research interesting but adds a note of caution. “They have achieved good results, but when it comes to industrialization of such research, costs are important. It is possible to make better batteries than those on the market today, but they are often too expensive to pay off,” she says.

As usual with stories like this, the prospects are tantalizing but we are still a long way from being able to buy one of these batteries at your local AutoZone store. But you can almost feel the pace of development in battery technology accelerating day by day if not moment by moment. We certainly do live in interesting times.

Hey. All that I could afford was 5,000 shares. But at $2 it's 10 grand. Nice for a poor man... LOL!

Look at BSRC and study it!

Tesla and PG&E are working on a massive ‘up to 1.1 GWh’ Powerpack battery system
Fred Lambert - Jun. 29th 2018 7:17 pm ET @FredericLambert
https://electrek.co/2018/06/29/tesla-pge-giant-1-gwh-powerpack-battery-system/

For the past few months, Tesla and CEO Elon Musk have been teasing a giant battery project that would dwarf even the company’s 129 MWh Powerpack project in Australia.
Today, we learn that Tesla is working with PG&E on a massive battery system with a capacity of “up to 1.1 GWh” in California.
Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E), one of the largest electric energy companies in the United States covering nearly 16 million people in Northern and Central California, submitted 4 new energy storage projects to the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) for approval today.
Three are third-party owned projects to be connected to PG&E’s grid, but the fourth one is “a proposed utility-owned 182.5 MW lithium-ion battery energy storage system (BESS) located within PG&E’s Moss Landing substation.”
Tesla would be providing the battery packs for the giant project, which would be able to output 182.5 MW of power for 4 hours, which represents 730 MWh of energy capacity or over 3,000 Tesla Powerpack 2s.
PG&E also has the option to increase the capacity to 6 hours for a total of 1.1 GWh.
Earlier this month, Tesla CTO JB Straubel announced that the company has deployed over 1 GWh of energy storage – a capacity that he says is “undeniably making an impact.”
If this new project is approved and deployed to its full potential, it would represent more energy capacity in a single project than what Tesla Energy deployed since its inception 3 years ago.
PG&E says that the battery system would be used to “address local capacity requirements and will participate in the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) markets, providing energy and ancillary services,” which is similar to what Tesla’s battery system in Australia is doing.
We recently reported that the Australian battery project reduced by 90% the cost of the grid services that used to be performed by fossil fuel power plants.
This new project would be Tesla’s third Powerpack project with PG&E.
Musk did hint at the new project during Tesla’s last conference call:

At a capacity of up to 1.1 GWh, this new project in Moss Landing fits the description.
The electric utility says that if approved by the CPUC, the first projects is scheduled to “come on-line by the end of 2019, with the other projects scheduled to come online by the end of 2020.”

Energy prices up. Drives the demand for alternative energy.
Get those BSRC juices flowing!

Can't be green! LOL! We have to fix that... LOL!

Tesla has a huge battery strain. Can't make them fast enough.
Tesla Model 3’s production ramp is creating ‘occasional battery cell shortages’, says Panasonic
Batteries!!!!! Now lets get that BSRC juice flowing.
https://electrek.co/2018/06/28/tesla-model-3-production-ramp-battery-cell-shortages-panasonic/

When SLTD rallied like BSRC is, I took 400% of my original investment out.
Means my WHOLE portfolio is free shares. Makes taking "losses" much easier.

They come off so fast that you need to have a strobe light to see them.
Only 2 messages left.... That exciting of a day! I could use another 500% day again! LOL!
1 post left!

Tesla has double the batteries than the whole world combined and still growing.
Audi and Daimler postponed their EV cars from 2019 to 2020. And Tesla's grid storage is growing at an unbelievable rate.
So much more to come.

Praying for my Tesla too...
Most shorted. Looks like some good numbers coming next week. Hoping for the short burn of the century. Only have 4 shares.
Tesla looking to have a larger market cap again...
More Tesla more BATTERIES!

Just asking. Thin up. thin down? I want it up.

Keep er going!

That was a jump!

100% would bring us back to 14¢

Just buy them if you have the money...

Buy the goose at market price and get the gold.

Bid/Ask
0.067 / 0.0769
B/A Size
20,000 X 10,000

$769 to move the stock.

Just do the math. When it's at the bottom end of the bid/ask gap, just slap the ask with 100 shares.... $7 and fees. I've done it at the EOD and changed it from a red close to a green close....

If they like our tech why don't they just buy BSRC? It's pennies to them. .2%

Relax on the charts. 2 things control this stock. News and the manipulators. When the news is strong, they can't manipulate it. When the news gets weak, it EASILY manipulated... I've moved market caps millions of dollars with $30....

Promises promises... LOL! I'd be REALLY happy to see the $5 SOON! LOL!
ALL IN! Lets go!. I won't hold my breath though.
Looking for the super rally in both Tesla and BSRC.... Which one first...

It would have been nice if the Patent application made the news.

Everybody gone?
Sold SUNW today. Bought 2,000 BSRC

Seems like BioSolar is becoming BiPolarSolar. Extreme up, then extreme down.
