SPEAKER
Dr. Xiao YAN
Over decade’s focus on the value creation of the industry chain of lithium batteries, research on the knowledge map of lithium batteries, especially how key battery parameters (KBP) behave during the aging process and the rapid extraction of KBP of the entire battery pack at the cell level and its consistency. He led the MS Energy team to launch the Prognostic Safety System (PSS), PSS-based digital energy storage maintenance system and developed the “electro-chemical level” diagnostic technology. Graduated from the Department of Physics, Peking University. He went to the United States to get his PhD degree from U Penn through the TD Lee’s CUSPEA program. He has worked at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, ReadRite and Seagate in Silicon Valley, Suzhou Institute of Nanotechnology at Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Shanghai University of Engineering Science. He has published more than 60 papers and more than 50 invention patents. Former CASPA Director, Shanghai Special Expert.
ABSTRACT
Climate change stimulated a world-wide energy transformation towards new energy such as photovoltaic (PV) and wind energies that are renewable. However, there are still lack of consensus as what are the fundamental rules governing the new energy science application, particularly the role of the battery energy storage (BES). From physics first principle, what are the basic characteristics for a large-scale new energy application? What scientific and industry laws it satisfies? Why would we expect PV-BES based distributed energy resource forming microgrid be the backbone of the future new power grid? How will the digital technology empower the microgrid and intelligent vehicle-grid interaction? What are the common needs for a sustainable new power grid How do we quantify the risks of the BES so that the “bankability” rules for the BES may be developed to ensure a sustainable operation in decades?
