CEO of KORE Power, Lindsay Gorril, discusses
renewable and electrical energy storage systems and
technology.
On this episode, you will learn the following:
KORE Power has been around for three years, and has been in
communication with global companies for about a year. The main goal
is to become the leading developer of high-density, high-voltage
energy storage solutions for global utility, industrial, and
mission-critical markets.
As a cell manufacturer, the team at KORE Power produces lithium ion
cells and places them into modules which can then be placed in
small energy storage platforms or used in massive peaker
plants.
In essence, these batteries store any excess or what would otherwise be wasted energy so that it can be used at times of low energy production or peak usage times. In turn, this not only makes solar grids and renewables more efficient, but also limits the amount of time the peaker plants are being run, which reduces greenhouse gasses and lowers the environmental impact.
Gorril discusses how the coronavirus pandemic has affected the
supply and demand for energy, and how it has shed light on the need
for and usefulness of more energy storage to alleviate certain
challenges.
He also explains why cost has historically been one of the greatest
constraints on the technology now being developed by KORE Power, a
recycling plan for the batteries they produce, how KORE’s
technology can be delivered to and used in remote locations where
power lines are not connected to large areas or by FEMA during
global disasters, the three main parts of a battery and the
technology behind the development of such high-density and
high-voltage systems, and more.
