Zinc Bromide Flow Battery Installation for Islanding and Backup Power

Abstract

This Environmental Security Technology Certification Program (ESTCP) effort demonstrates the energy security and cost benefits of implementing a Zinc Bromide(Zn/Br) Flow Battery-based Energy Storage System (ESS) at the Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Miramar. The effort integrates an innovative Zn/Br Flow Battery and Intelligent Power and Energy Management (IPEM) technologies with the existing MCAS infrastructure, providing energy security and islanding capability, while reducing costs.
