Summary of various energy storage technologies based on fundamentantal principles, including their operational perimeter and maturity, used for grid applications.
Mechanical: Direct storage of potential or kinetic energy. Typically, pumped storage hydropower or compressed air energy storage (CAES) or flywheel. Thermal: Storage of excess energy as heat or cold for later usage. Can involve sensible (temperature change) or latent (phase change) thermal storage.
As discussed earlier, PSH is the major electrical energy storage technology in the U.S. in terms of total energy and power storage capacity. This is clearly shown in the figure below depicting the cumulative sum of energy and power storage installations by year and technology.
The report provides a survey of potential energy storage technologies to form the basis for evaluating potential future paths through which energy storage technologies can improve the utilization of fossil fuels and other thermal energy systems.
