A Techno-economic and cost benefit analysis of the Ultrabattery for residential applications with solar photovoltaics in Western Australia
Salam, Neil (2017) A Techno-economic and cost benefit analysis of the Ultrabattery for residential applications with solar photovoltaics in Western Australia. Masters by Coursework thesis, Murdoch University.
Abstract
In this report I will summarize the key findings from modeling and literature review on the Ultrabatteries technology from a Techno-economic analysis perspective. Key findings:
- The Ultrabattery has fewer technical obstacles than Lithium as presented.
- The Ultrabattery may have a payback of as low as 5 years compared with Lithium’s 7 years as modeled under assumptions.
- There is scope for this technology and potential for residential storage growth in the WA market.
- Developments in the market in economics of electricity and the photovoltaic (PV) and energy storage system improvements in cost will help the growth of the market.
