Developing Cryogenic Energy Storage at Refrigerated Warehouses as an Interactive Hub to Integrate Renewable Energy in Industrial Food Refrigeration and to Enhance PowerGrid Sustainability

Risultati finali

Report on refrigerated food facility mapping

A survey will be developed to obtain information on large European refrigerated warehouses and food factories. The survey will be designed to be simple to complete in less than 5 minutes. The survey will collect information on: 1. Location of refrigerated warehouse or food factory. 2. Approximate size of refrigerated facilities. 3. The average and peak electrical input power to the facility. 4. Waste heat generation from the facility. 5. Whether renewable energy resources are currently installed on site. If so, their maximum capacity. 6. Whether RES could potentially be located on site. The survey will be electronic and translated from English into French, German, Spanish, Italian and Bulgarian. Information collected will be collated and displayed graphically using maps to show where in Europe the LAES could be directly applied currently.

CryoHub Risks Register Template

Setting-up of the risks register

Report on potential opportunities for Cryohub in Europe

Using information from WP2.1 and 2.2 it will be possible to identify where the CryoHub concept could be applied.

Energy profile report for EU member states

Report with analysis of EU member states’ energy supply profiles and carbon footprints; installed renewable energy supply and capacity and renewable energy economic, regulatory and policy drivers

Updated version of D10.2 - Report on policy recommendations that would maximise the benefits of CryoHub and similar projects

Assess the policy and regulatory barriers that could prevent the technology from being deployed (at EU and national level) How the technology, if deployed at scale, could impact other energy/food policy decisions NOTE - an interim version D10.2 was submitted in month 42, D10.4 is an updated version of D10.2.

Report of the potential benefits of CryoHub for grid balancing

Six (6) refrigerated warehouses or food factories will be used to generate case studies and cross-case comparisons which will identify the variability of potential benefits of CryoHub for grid balancing. Other benefits such as operational resilience, security, meeting carbon targets, will also be determined. The case studies will also identify barriers to implementation, including policy barriers. National differences will be highlighted.

Analysis of when and where integration of the technology would be most valuable for business and at the energy system level

Identify when and where LAES, combined with cold warehouse stores, should seek to be introduced to deliver maximum value to the operators and system Focus on analysis of four countries to represent diversity in energy systems, food distribution systems and geographic spread. How other countries may be similar to, or different from, these case studies will be described

Report on RES mapping

A further exercise carried out alongside 2.1 will be to map locations and power outputs of RES close to (less than 1 km) the refrigerated facilities.

CryoHub Quality Manual

Preparation of the CryoHub Quality Manual that will describe the management rules and procedures

Active role in engagement strategy to communicate the benefit of, and necessary policy improvements to further support, CryoHub

Set of policy recommendations which would enable the effective deployment of the technology, to benefit the economy and meet wider energy system/food supply goals

Contextual barriers and business strategy marketing and dissemination materials

Investigate alternative business strategies, models and concepts aimed at overcoming contextual barriers and increasing CryoHub market uptake and diffusion Market test alternative business strategies through discussion and focus groups at dissemination events in each participating project country Knowledge transfer to identify optimal means to disseminate outputs and to feed into marketing campaign

Report on policy recommendations that would maximise the benefits of CryoHub and similar projects

Assess the policy and regulatory barriers that could prevent the technology from being deployed (at EU and national level) How the technology, if deployed at scale, could impact other energy/food policy decisions

Academic article on the potential of CryoHub solution for grid balancing

CryoHub tested

The LAES system will be checked against design performance predictions. If discrepancies are found, these will be investigated to see if the discrepancies are due to the system or predictive model.

CryoHub installed

The CryoHub components will be installed into the refrigerated warehouse/food production facility. Instrumentation will be installed, tested and checked

Project branding and identity

A project identity will be created (logo, PowerPoint presentation, project information brochure, posters and banners). The publicity information will be initially produced in English but will be translated into 5 languages (French, German, Spanish, Italian and Bulgarian)

Project website

A multilingual project website will be set up and linked to the partners’ websites

Workshops and Conferences

Conferences (at least 1 major and 4 mini) and workshops (at least 1 in each of the 5 main countries) will be organised

Press Releases

Press releases adapted to the targeted audience will be issued in scientific and trade press, including consumer magazines and organisation It is anticipated to have the first press release at the end of the 1st year and subsequently to have at least 2 press releases per country per year

Publication

Each partner will publish articles in trade press in each partner country to publicise work and recruit companies to be a member of the stakeholders group The academic partners will all contribute to articles to be published in peer reviewed scientific journals (all open access)

Newsletters

Throughout the project, an electronic newsletter will be issued every 6 months to disseminate the results to industry, trade bodies and policy makers. It will be initially produced in English but will be translated into 5 languages (French, German, Spanish, Italian and Bulgarian)
