The report includes six key conclusions: Energy storage is a potential substitute for, or complement to, almost every aspect of a power system, including generation, transmission, and demand flexibility.
Energy storage technologies can significantly improve the performance of the whole energy system. They enhance energy security, allow more cost-effective solutions, and support greater sustainability, enabling a more just energy system.
The obvious solution to intermittency is energy storage. However, its constraints and implications are far from trivial. Developing and facilitating energy storage is associated with technological difficulties as well as economic and regulatory problems that need to be addressed to spur investments and foster competition.
Some of the challenges in energy storage include network access and charging, wide definition of ‘energy storage’, and ensuring the role of bulk energy storage in the state.
In many markets, energy storage is classified as a load-modifying resource or, in some cases, it is classified both as a generation asset and as a load resource.
