WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) today released its draft Energy Storage Strategy and Roadmap (SRM), a plan that provides strategic direction and identifies key opportunities to optimize DOE’s investment in future planning of energy storage research, development, demonstration, and deployment projects.
This SRM does not address new policy actions, nor does it specify budgets and resources for future activities. This Energy Storage SRM responds to the Energy Storage Strategic Plan periodic update requirement of the Better Energy Storage Technology (BEST) section of the Energy Policy Act of 2020 (42 U.S.C. § 17232 (b) (5)).
DOE is seeking comment from stakeholders to inform its draft Energy Storage SRM for public comment at a future time; notice of its availability will be provided through the Federal Register through a formal NOA. Interested stakeholders can view both the draft SRM and the official NOA.
The underlying motivation for DOE’s strategic investment in energy storage is to ensure that the American people will have access to energy storage innovations that enable resilient, flexible, affordable, and secure energy systems and supply, for everyone, everywhere.
Energy storage duration is typically expressed in terms of the number of hours a storage device can provide continuous output at its rated capacity. Definitions of LDES in the literature range from as little as 2 hours to as much as multiple days or even months.
The Energy Storage Grand Challenge employs a use case framework to ensure storage technologies can cost-effectively meet specific needs, and it incorporates a broad range of technologies in several categories: electrochemical, electromechanical, thermal, flexible generation, flexible buildings, and power electronics.
