Beacon Power - Massachusetts innovators seek to solve renewable storage problem

Beacon Power — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 10:41:31 -0600

David Marcus, CEO of General Compression Inc., believes his company’s innovation can solve a major problem facing wind powered-turbines – how to store excess power. Marcus said his company has been engineering a new technology for two years that involves storing excess wind power as compressed air.

Battery storage systems are currently cost-prohibitive so most often wind power has to be used when it is available. That allows for a lot of renewable power to go to waste when the wind is blowing particularly hard or at night when demand for energy is lower.
