A collaborative effort between BP, Shell and ConocoPhilips along with Scottish and Southern Energy, the project not only holds the promise of storing more than a million tons of the greenhouse gas every year but also hopes to revive the near-exhausted oilfield. While there is nothing revolutionary about the project, the real excitement lies in the fact that this is the first time so many different aspects of carbon capture and storage (CCS) are being melded in a single project on an industrial scale. The project is expected to cost almost $600 M and be operational in 2009.","PeriodicalId":182274,"journal":{"name":"Power Engineer","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129437939","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One key contender is the lithium-ion battery, which is known for its relatively high energy density and low self-discharge, balanced against high costs. Field tests at the Vodafone base transceiver station confirmed the expected performance of the prototype Li-ion battery, namely its change and high rate discharge performance under real application conditions in a live installation. Showing no significant loss of performance during the nine-month test period, it was concluded that Li-ion batteries have the potential to offer a viable alternative to VRLA in telecoms applications.","PeriodicalId":182274,"journal":{"name":"Power Engineer","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116828028","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The energy source comprises a high energy dense Zebra battery and hydrogen proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell stack, which together are smaller and cheaper than primary power fuel cell systems.
