The 2020 Cost and Performance Assessment provided installed costs for six energy storage technologies: lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, lead-acid batteries, vanadium redox flow batteries, pumped storage hydro, compressed-air energy storage, and hydrogen energy storage.
The cost estimates provided in the report are not intended to be exact numbers but reflect a representative cost based on ranges provided by various sources for the examined technologies. The analysis was done for energy storage systems (ESSs) across various power levels and energy-to-power ratios.
Some key observations include: Energy Storage Capacity: Sensible heat storage and high-temperature TES systems generally offer higher energy storage capacities compared to latent heat-based storage and thermochemical-based energy storage technologies.
Cost metrics are approached from the viewpoint of the final downstream entity in the energy storage project, ultimately representing the final project cost. This framework helps eliminate current inconsistencies associated with specific cost categories (e.g., energy storage racks vs. energy storage modules).
Chemical energy storage systems, such as molten salt and metal-air batteries, offer promising solutions for energy storage with unique advantages. This section explores the technical and economic schemes for these storage technologies and their potential for problem-solving applications.
Proposes an optimal scheduling model built on functions on power and heat flows. Energy Storage Technology is one of the major components of renewable energy integration and decarbonization of world energy systems. It significantly benefits addressing ancillary power services, power quality stability, and power supply reliability.
