As such, lithium-ion batteries are now a technology opportunity for the wider energy sector, well beyond just transport. Electrolysers, devices that split water into hydrogen and oxygen using electrical energy, are a way to produce clean hydrogen from low-carbon electricity.
Batteries and hydrogen play a crucial role in creating a cleaner and smarter tomorrow. They are significant because they can both convert electricity into chemical energy and vice versa. They are ready to transform the energy industry, but they differ in their promises and characteristics. That is why batteries and hydrogen stand out as two promising technologies.
The lithium-ion battery can supply to grid balancing services for a short time duration – typically a few hours on account of higher discharge rate and hence are useful for managing only intraday variations. On the other hand, Hydrogen fuel cells can assure the grid balancing for a longer time- a week, a month, or a season.
The advantage of hydrogen as a fuel for electric vehicles is that it can be charged faster than batteries, in the order of minutes equivalent to gasoline cars. Also, the higher energy density than batteries means that it can drive much longer ranges and pack more energy in the same space than battery packs.
Both batteries and hydrogen have been creating a buzz and heated discussions for the future of energy solutions. Although batteries are more developed and efficient at the moment, hydrogen shows a lot of potential as well.
Figure 3 shows the different stages of losses leading up to the 30% efficiency, compared to the battery’s 70-90% efficiency, since the stages of losses are much lower than hydrogen. Since this technology is still under development and improvement, it is lagging in streamlining its production.
