Investment decisions Energy storage can affect investment in power generation by reducing the need for peaker plants and transmission and distribution upgrades, thereby lowering the overall cost of electricity generation and delivery.
At the consumption level, the use of fossil fuel technologies for power generation results in more carbon emissions. Energy storage enables the seamless integration of intermittent renewable sources like solar and wind into the power grid. As a result, this fosters environmental conservation initiatives while also guaranteeing stable power quality.
Continued research in storage valuation models and their time resolution will also contribute to maximizing the benefits of energy storage investments. Overall, energy storage presents a promising alternative and a transformative factor in the investment decision processes of the power sector. 6. Conclusions
Long Duration Electricity Storage investment support scheme will boost investor confidence and unlock billions in funding for vital projects. The UK is a step closer to energy independence as the government launches a new scheme to help build energy storage infrastructure.
Energy storage has the potential to play a crucial role in the future of the power sector. However, significant research and development efforts are needed to improve storage technologies, reduce costs, and increase efficiency.
