The development of thermal, mechanical, and chemical energy storage technologies addresses challenges created by significant penetration of variable renewable energy sources into the electricity mix.
Energy storage systems that can operate over minute by minute, hourly, weekly, and even seasonal timescales have the capability to fully combat renewable resource variability and are a key enabling technology for deep penetration of renewable power generation.
Global growth of energy storage projects including (top) and excluding (bottom) pumped hydro . Battery technologies store energy chemically and charge/discharge electricity via ion movement between electrodes as illustrated in Fig. 14.
Another important point is that the commercial viability of an energy storage system is typically a function of both performance and cost, i.e., a lower-cost system may be viable even with reduced performance or vice versa. Table 1. Performance and cost metrics for energy storage systems.
Thermal energy is stored solely through a change of temperature of the storage medium. The capacity of a storage system is defi ned by the specifi c heat capacity and the mass of the medium used. Latent heat storage is accomplished by using phase change materials (PCMs) as storage media.
The length of energy storage technologies is divided into two categories: LDES systems can discharge power for many hours to days or even longer, while short-duration storage systems usually remove for a few minutes to a few hours. It is impossible to exaggerate the significance of LDES in reaching net zero.
