3 FAQs about 160MW power station energy storage

What is a 150 MW solar power station?

The 150 MW Andasol solar power station is a commercial parabolic trough solar thermal power plant, located in Spain. The Andasol plant uses tanks of molten salt to store captured solar energy so that it can continue generating electricity when the sun is not shining.

How do energy storage plants augment electrical grids?

Many individual energy storage plants augment electrical grids by capturing excess electrical energy during periods of low demand and storing it in other forms until needed on an electrical grid. The energy is later converted back to its electrical form and returned to the grid as needed.

How many X 4MW systems are there?

The total undertaking includes 12 x 4MW systems and three 20MW systems. 'virtual' description is correct in the sense that the 15 systems in 10 locations "can be controlled as a single plant. While of course they can still be controlled individually when local support to the grid is needed".
