Within this study, Al as an abundant and energy-dense metal is identified as a promising energy carrier for PtM applications, and the entire conversion chain (storage phase: Al production; Utilization phase: re
Aluminum-based energy storage can participate as a buffer practically in any electricity generating technology. Today, aluminum electrolyzers are powered mainly by large conventional units such as coal-fired (about 40%), hydro (about 50%) and nuclear (about 5%) power plants , , , .
Aluminium redox cycles are promising candidates for seasonal energy storage. Energy that is stored chemically in Al may reach 23.5 MWh/m 3. Power-to-Al can be used for storing solar or other renewable energy in aluminium. Hydrogen and heat can be produced at low temperatures from aluminium and water.
To provide the correct feasibility study the work includes the analysis of aluminum production process: from ore to metal. During this analysis the material and energy balances are considered. Total efficiency of aluminum-based energy storage is evaluated. Aluminum based energy generation technologies are reviewed.
Energy storage capacity of aluminium Aluminium has a high storage density. Theoretically, 8.7 kWh of heat and electricity can be produced from 1 kg of Al, which is in the range of heating oil, and on a volumetric base (23.5 MWh/m 3) even surpasses the energy density of heating oil by a factor of two. 4.2. The Power-to-Al process
The coming of aluminum-based energy storage technologies is expected in some portable applications and small-power eco-cars. Since energy generation based on aluminum is cleaner than that of fossil fuel, the use of aluminum is defensible within polluted areas, e.g. within megapolises.
Calorific value of aluminum is about 31 MJ/kg. Only this energy can be usefully utilized within aluminum-fueled power plant. So, it shows the efficiency limit. If 112.8 MJ are deposited, the maximum cycle efficiency of aluminum-based energy storage is as follows: 31 MJ 72.8 MJ = 43 %. This percentage represents the total-thermal efficiency.
