Although the majority of recent electricity storage system installations have a duration at rated power of up to ∼4 h, several trends and potential applications are identified that require electricity storage with longer durations of 10 to ∼100 h.
As electricity power grids transition to variable renewable energy sources, long-duration energy storage (LDES) will be increasingly important to address long-term, seasonal intermittency in renewable generation.
Energy storage technologies with longer durations of 10 to 100 h could enable a grid with more renewable power, if the appropriate cost structure and performance—capital costs for power and energy, round-trip efficiency, self-discharge, etc.—can be realized.
Although 10 to 100 h energy storage will help facilitate the integration of renewable power on the grid, it is not long enough to last for seasons, and is not sufficient to enable a grid with 100% renewable power.
In this system, unless LDES is extremely inexpensive, short-duration energy storage (SDES) delivers 6–10× more electricity and has a consistently lower levelized cost. LDES substitutes for the role of a dispatchable firm resource.
