N2 - The advantages of storing energy in local electricity supply systems, based on wind power and diesel fuel, are obvious. Surplus wind energy can be stored for later use, and thus minimize the run-time for the diesel generator. The diesel engine can be operated at a high load when running, giving maximum efficiency of the system. Electrochemical energy store systems are available from industry in a number of varieties. Two of the most widely used, the Lead-acid and the Nickel/Cadmium alkaline batteries are treated in this report, and their application in wind/diesel systems are assessed.
