Electrochemical energy storage in batteries is attractive because it is compact, easy to deploy, economical and provides virtually instant response both to input from the battery and output from the network to the battery.
Most importantly, batteries help accelerate the deployment of renewables, by increasing the promotion of energy generated that is actually used. Without energy storage, the costs of the energy transition would be higher.
Energy storage using batteries is accepted as one of the most important and efficient ways of stabilising electricity networks and there are a variety of different battery chemistries that may be used.
For several reasons, battery storage is vital in the energy mix. It supports integrating and expanding renewable energy sources, reducing reliance on fossil fuels. Storing excess energy produced during periods of high renewable generation (sunny or windy periods) helps mitigate the intermittency issue associated with renewable resources.
With the rise of EVs, a battery energy storage system integrated with charging stations can ensure rapid charging without straining the power grid by storing electricity during off-peak hours and dispensing it during peak usage.
Lithium-ion batteries have a very high energy density. The high energy density means the batteries can store a large amount of energy in a small space footprint, making them ideal for applications where space is at a premium, such as in electric vehicles or energy storage systems.
Grid-scale battery storage is a mature and fast-growing industry with demand reaching 123 gigawatt-hours last year. There are a total of 5,000 installations across the world.
