Jun 1, 2024 · The application analysis reveals that battery energy storage is the most cost-effective choice for durations of <2 h, while thermal energy storage is competitive for durations
The application analysis reveals that battery energy storage is the most cost-effective choice for durations of <2 h, while thermal energy storage is competitive for durations of 2.3–8 h. Pumped hydro storage and compressed-air energy storage emerges as the superior options for durations exceeding 8 h.
Lithium batteries, in particular, demonstrate the best economic performance under the assumed annual cycle frequency. Notably, when the energy storage duration is extended to 6 h, the LCOS of lithium batteries can drop to <0.65 CNY/kWh.
Multiple analysis for the hour-level scenario In the hourly scenario, as illustrated in Fig. 6, battery energy storage exhibits a substantial advantage. Fig. 5 plainly illustrates the superiority of battery storage over other energy storage technologies, particularly for storage durations of <1 h.
BESTs are increasingly deployed, so critical challenges with respect to safety, cost, lifetime, end-of-life management and temperature adaptability need to be addressed. The rise in renewable energy utilization is increasing demand for battery energy-storage technologies (BESTs).
In this Review, we describe BESTs being developed for grid-scale energy storage, including high-energy, aqueous, redox flow, high-temperature and gas batteries. Battery technologies support various power system services, including providing grid support services and preventing curtailment.
When the storage duration is 1 day, thermal energy storage exhibits the best economic performance among all energy storage technologies, with a cost of <0.4 CNY/kWh. Even with increased storage durations, the economic performance of TES and CAES remains considerable. Fig. 8. Economic performance under the day-level energy storage scenario.
