Abstract: Advanced energy storage has been a key enabling technology for the portable electronics explosion. The lithium and Ni-MeH battery technologies are less than 40 years old and have taken over the electronics industry and are on the same track for the transportation industry and the utility grid.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) pursues energy storage research and development (R&D) to assure a continuous, affordable, and sustainable electricity supply, recognizing that specific storage technologies best serve certain applications.
Energy storage is becoming more prevalent in the electricity industry as renewable penetration continues to increase and technology cost curves continue to decline. The AESO’s Dispatchable Renewables and Energy Storage (DR&S) report, published in September 2018, included a recommendation that the AESO develop an energy storage roadmap.
In this review, energy storage from the gigawatt pumped hydro systems to the smallest watt-hour battery are discussed, and the future directions predicted. If renewable energy, or even lower cost energy, is to become prevalent energy storage is a critical component in reducing peak power demands and the intermittent nature of solar and wind power.
