DEFINITION: Energy stored in the form of chemical fuels that can be readily converted to mechanical, thermal or electrical energy for industrial and grid applications. Power generation systems can leverage chemical energy storage for enhanced flexibility.
Depending on how it is stored, it can be kept over long periods and is not seasonally dependent like pumped hydro. Chemical storage can add power into the grid and also store excess power from the grid for later use. Alternatively, many chemicals used for energy storage, like hydrogen, can decarbonize industry and transportation.
Energy storage systems are typically defined as either AC or DC coupled systems. This is simply the point of connection for the energy storage system in relation to the electrical grid or other equipment. For AC (alternating current) coupled systems, the batteries are connected to the part of the grid that has AC or alternating current.
Chemical energy storage scientists are working closely with PNNL’s electric grid researchers, analysts, and battery researchers. For example, we have developed a hydrogen fuel cell valuation tool that provides techno-economic analysis to inform industry and grid operators on how hydrogen generation and storage can benefit their local grid.
Energy storage technologies have the unique capabilities to keep the lights on when the power grid is under stress. In both Texas and California, energy storage technologies have prevented black outs during significant heatwaves—keeping people safe, power affordable, and the power on for businesses.
But, energy is also stored in other chemical forms, including biomass like wood, gases such as hydrogen and methane, and batteries. These other chemical forms are key enablers for decarbonization of our electric grid, industrial operations, and the transportation sector.
