Translation of "Stromüberschuss" in English

In the first year of operation, the design achieved an electricity surplus of 42.5 MWh.

Surplus energy will be injected into the grid regardless of the consumption of a home.

The roofs are for a large part fitted with photovoltaic plants and the electricity surpluses not required on site is fed into the grid.

The initiative, CO2RRECT, founded in 2010, is taking the approach of storing surplus power from alternative energy sources.

Or from other renewable power sources that produce excess electricity, eg at noon.

Each team succeeded in generating considerably more than the required electricity surplus of 40 kWh.

The 2200 MW interconnection between the two regions is too small to allow a completely flexible use to balance each region’s lack or excess of power.

The greenhouse gas emission savings associated with this excess electricity shall be taken to be equal to the amount of greenhouse gas that would be emitted when an equal amount of electricity was generated in a power plant using the same fuel as the cogeneration unit.

Using inverters, userscan effectively trade any excess electricityproduced during periods of low demand,and avoid the need for banks of storagebatteries.“The European funding was crucial,” says Mr Jedliczka.

The HERB recovery boiler supports and provides steam and power for the complete pulp mill and generates a large electricity surplus, which is to be distributed through the national grid.

The sugar factory, which uses thermal processes and generates excess electric power, also complements the wheat starch factory, which requires little heat but a substantial amount of electricity.

The special thing about pumped-storage hydro power plants is that water from the lower reservoir can be pumped back again when there is a power surplus in the system.

This means that the process is shut down when less electrical energy is fed into the grid and is then started up again when there is surplus electricity, says project coordinator Franziska Klaucke from the TU's Department of Energy Engineering and Environmental Protection.

At the same time, the power plants have to be operated in order to provide services to the grid, without consumption of or adequate payment for the minimum power fed in, since, when a surplus of power exists on the grid, power prices on exchanges are lower than the marginal costs of generation.

Since electricity is only tradeable to a limited extent in the event of an electricity surplus, solar electricity, for example from wind energy, must be converted by water electrolysis into hydrogen and oxygen.

Of course one can save the excess energy in battery packs, but they would have to have huge capacities and would be equally expensive.

This would cover local demand for electricity, it would also solve water problems due to sea water desalination and there would be excess for intercontinental electricity trade.

This takes place during the hours that there is a surplus of electricity, which is usually at night.

If the storage system has been integrated, any surplus electricity is sent to the powerful lithium-ion batteries before a signal is sent to the heat pump.

The electricity generated will be used primarily by the school and the kindergarten. Any surplus electricity will be sold to the grid of Del Sur, a local utility.

The sugar factory, which uses thermal processes and generates excess electric power, also complements the wheat starch factory, which requires little heat but a substantial amount of electricity.Another advantage is that starch process byproducts can be converted to ethanol in the bioethanol plants.

If there is a surplus of power in the network, the pumped storage power station switches to pumping mode – an electric motor drives the pump turbines, which pumps water from a lower reservoir to a higher storage basin.
