PROJECT OBJECTIVE AND DESCRIPTION The overall objectives of the Government's battery storage program are to accelerate the development of reliable and economlcally vlable electric energy storage systems and to enable the earliest posslble commerciallzation of such systems. The objectives of the NASA Redox Storage System Development project are to demonstrate the readiness of Redox system technology for solar-related and utility applications and to transfer Redox system technology to industry for product development and commerciallzation ln order to meet the overall objectives of the Government's battery storage program. The proJect's activities are accomplished prlnclpally through contracts wlth the private sector to provide early and effective transfer of tech- nology. Government funds in support of thlS proJect are provided by DOE. Activities are coordinated with complementary projects and tasks belng pur- sued by DOE. The technlcal project elements are descrlbed briefly in the following sections. PROTOTYPE SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT This element provldes for a major procurement to develop an industrial capabllity to take the current NASA Lewis technology and go on to the design, development, and commerciallzation of iron-chromium Redox storage systems. The procurement provides for a phased approach, beginning with multikllowatt Redox storage system development and testlng and culmlnating with megawatt Redox storage systems for testlng ln the DOE-EPRI battery energy storage test (BEST) facllity. ThlS task also lncludes in-house system testlng of a pre- prototype 1-kW system currently in operation. APPLICATION ANALYSES ThlS element has as ltS prlmary purposes the definltlon of application concepts and technology requirements, speclfic system deflnitlon studles, and the identiflcation of market sectors and their penetration potentlal. Included are the necessary component and system cost proJectlons. SUPPORTING TECHNOLOGY ThlS element lncludes both in-house and contractual efforts that en- compass implementatlon of necessary technology improvements ln membranes, electrodes, reactant processing, and system design. PROJECT GOALS AND MAJOR ACCOMPLISHMENTS The NASA Redox Storage System Development proJect schedule and mlle- stones are shown in figure 2 for each of the proJect elements. The schedule includes the award of one or more multikilowatt Redox development contracts by November 1981 with the first preprototype 10-kW/80-kWh Redox system fleld 2PDF Image | NASA Redox Storage System Development Project 1980
