CHEME 6679
Energy Storage Module

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2016-2017.

The performance, cost, and safety of energy storage technology are recognized at the Achilles' heel in our transition towards a sustainable energy portfolio. The broad integration of inherently intermitted renewable energy sources (e.g., solar and wind) is critically dependent on technological advances in energy storage. The infrastructure used to store chemical, electrical, and thermal energy is extensive, multiscale, and capital intensive. Coverage in this module includes thermal energy storage, and electrical energy storage and conversion. Technologies evaluated include fuel cells, batteries, compressed air energy storage (CAES), pumped hydro, supercapacitors and flywheels.

When Offered Spring (one quarter of term). Offered alternate years.
