The LCC1200 series comprises AC-DC power supplies offering main output voltages of 24, 28, or 48 VDC and standby output of 5 VDC @1.5 A (maximum). The power supplies accept a universal 90 to 264 VAC input and offer maximum output at 1,200 W @180 to 264 VAC and 800 W @ 90 to 132 VAC.
Table 1 and Table 2 contain the characteristics of all storage methods. A comparison of all energy storage technologies by their power rating, autonomy at rated power, energy and power density, lifetime in cycles and years, energy efficiency, maximum DoD (permitted), response time, capital cost, self-discharge rate and maturity is presented.
Also, flywheels and supercapacitors are suitable for short-term applications, such as a brief auxiliary power supply due to an unexpected interruption. Further, CAES and flow batteries are a good choice for peak-hour load leveling when high energy storage is required (many MWh).
The power supplies accept a universal 90 to 264 VAC input and offer maximum output at 1,200 W @180 to 264 VAC and 800 W @ 90 to 132 VAC. Standard features include AC OK and DC OK signals, remote inhibit and differential remote sense, and protection against overtemperature, overcurrent, and overvoltage conditions.
The choice of the ideal storage method to be used depends on several factors: the amount of energy or power to be stored (small-scale or large-scale), the time for which this stored energy is required to be retained or to be released (short-term or long-term), spacing, portability, environmental issues, energy efficiency, cost, and so forth.
Following, thermal energy storage has 3.2 GW installed power capacity, in which the 75% is deployed by molten salt thermal storage technology. Electrochemical batteries are the third most developed storage method with 1.63 GW global power capacity, followed by electromechanical storage with 1.57 GW global installed power capacity.
