Physical and chemical energy storage program. Project summary data
The Department of Energy's Office of Advanced Conservation Technologies (ACT) is developing cost-effective, efficient, reliable, and environmentally acceptable energy storage systems. The mission of the Energy Storage Program is to develop devices, processes, and subsystems which permit domestic energy resources to be supplied at the time and locations where they can be used. In this program, energy is stored in thermal, chemical, mechanical, and magnetic forms. Generally, the best storage device for a specific supply system is one which minimizes the need for converting from one energy form to another in the overall system which consists of production, storage, transportation, and end-user equipment. This publication consists principally of summary sheets for each active project in the Chemical/Hydrogen, Thermal, Magnetic, Mechanical, Flywheel and Underground Energy Storage Program for FY 1980. Each Summary includes: Project Title, Principal Investigator, Organization, Project Goals, Project Status, Contract Number, Contract Period, Funding Level and Funding Source. An overview section is given before each set of project summaries. (LCL)
