The Duck increases emissions volatility, just like it increases wholesale market price volatility. Ramping and operation of combined cycles at minimum power have offset the zero-carbon aspect of renewables. https://t.co/gaCICHfin3
Safe, compact and low-cost large-scale, long-duration #energystorage to get through long periods of low production by wind and solar and to reduce the need for for Liquefied Natural Gas or Hydrogen, and the associated #energysecurity risks.

ENERGY STORAGE BOOSTS OUTPUT OF PEAKING PLANTS. New invention targets summer capacity needed to assure grid reliability. #energytwitter#energystorage#energy
https://t.co/HVUviDb7JH
Sustainability breakthrough for weekly, monthly, or seasonal energy storage dramatically reduces use of scarce water resources, hydrogen fuel, and liquid air storage medium. #energystorage#energy#renewableenergy
https://t.co/6JqoUtyHDJ
By extending #energystorage duration, @wmconlon's new patent adds resilience to deliver additional electric power when needed for grid reliability in the face of extreme events, like polar vortex, heat waves, or wildfires.

@kcboyce@T0THEP01NT Liquid Salt Combined Cycle™ (LSCC) uses molten salt, which is non-toxic, non-flammable, and doesn't degrade with use. It is a perpetual life asset, but it it can be re-purposed or safely disposed. The rest is customary power plant materials -- steel, concrete, insulation.
@MyCEATI's Thermal Generation and Emerging Technology Groups are co-sponsoring a webinar by @wmconlon on Bridging #Renewable and Thermal Generation with Hybrid #energystorage. Utilities can sign up for the 14 January webinar here: https://t.co/lIIpUb5osH
We are pleased to announce that @SwRI was selected by @ENERGY to advance Pintail Power's Liquid Air Combined Cycle™ hybrid #energystorage technology, combining proven equipment with innovative systems engineering for #renewable integration at >10GWh.

@wmconlon will offer perspectives on integrating thermal energy storage with nuclear power to add flexibility as part of this workshop on Separating Nuclear Reactors from the Power Block with Heat Storage sponsored by @EPRINews, @INL, and @MIT. https://t.co/gmTzTRKZLG
Integration of energy storage with fossil generation is the least-cost means of reducing carbon emissions from gas plants needed for reliability. By cutting fuel consumption, it is also the least-cost means of using H2 as a fuel. Now we also have post-combustion CO2 capture.
Renewables need time-shifting to displace gas, as @California_ISO has already curtailed >1000GWh of solar this year. Low-cost, large-scale hybrid storage from @PintailPower cuts fuel Heat Rate >40%, adds flexibility, and cuts carbon intensity at night.
@PintailPower has the answer for California's big clean energy ambitions with long-duration, large-scale energy storage to realize goals https://t.co/qa6dt2TeQn via @UtilityDive
Founder, inventor and President @wmconlon was interviewed at #powergen19 by @Kevin_ODonovan, and talked about how the patented Liquid Salt Combined Cycle™ provides long-duration #storage with cost, performance, flexibility and safety advantages. https://t.co/Da0vTvykTT
@PintailPower's Liquid Salt Combined Cycle™ transforms thermal generation assets into low-carbon resources that deliver capacity and energy at far lower cost than batteries and alleviate curtailment of renewable and conventional generation.
