However, such storage systems become vi-able and economically reasonable only if the grids have to carry and distribute large amounts of vol-atile electricity from REs. The fi rst demonstration and pilot plants are currently under construction (e.g. in Europe).
Electrical Energy Storage, EES, is one of the key technologies in the areas covered by the IEC. EES techniques have shown unique capabilities in coping with some critical characteristics of electricity, for example hourly variations in demand and price.
The IEC is convinced that electrical energy storage will be indispensable to reaching these public policy goals. It is therefore essential that deployment of storage should receive long-term and robust support from policy-makers and regulators.
There exist a number of cost comparison sources for energy storage technologies For example, work performed for Pacific Northwest National Laboratory provides cost and performance characteristics for several different battery energy storage (BES) technologies (Mongird et al. 2019).
One of the main functions of energy storage, to match the supply and demand of energy (called time shifting), is essential for large and small-scale applications. In the following, we show two cases classifi ed by their size: kWh class and MWh class. The third class, the GWh class, will be covered in section 4.2.2.
Several mature EES technologies, in particular FES, DLC and battery systems, can be used in these ranges. PHS is the only currently feasible large-capacity EES for medium discharge times; further development in CAES is expected. Suitable locations for large PHS and CAES systems are topographically limited.
