Technical Report: Energy storage for the electricity grid : benefits and market potential assessment guide : a study for the DOE Energy Storage Systems Program.
This data-driven assessment of the current status of energy storage technologies is essential to track progress toward the goals described in the ESGC and inform the decision-making of a broad range of stakeholders. Not all energy storage technologies could be addressed in this initial report due to the complexity of the topic.
The 2020 Cost and Performance Assessment provided installed costs for six energy storage technologies: lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, lead-acid batteries, vanadium redox flow batteries, pumped storage hydro, compressed-air energy storage, and hydrogen energy storage.
Two emerging technologies in electric energy storage are: Lithium-Ion and Flow Batteries as described in this report; these two electrochemical technologies offer a more robust and adaptable energy grid, as shown in Figure I.2.
lenges for their widespread adoption. Key standards in progress include IEEE 1547.3 for energy storage integration.143 UL 2941 for system safety,144 and SunSpec Modbus for communication protocols.145 Despite their importance, standards development can be slow due to consen
Grid-scale energy storage, however, lacks the stringent power and weight constraints of electric vehicles, enabling a multitude of storage technologies to compete to provide current and emerging grid flexibility services.
The key conclusion of the research is that deployment of energy storage has the potential to increase significantly—reaching at least five times today’s capacity by 2050—and storage will likely play an integral role in determining the cost-optimal grid mix of the future.
