For long-duration storage, “it looks plausible that that would be the technology of choice,” says energy expert Wolf-Peter Schill of the German Institute for Economic Research who coauthored a 2021 review on the economics of energy storage in the Annual Review of Resource Economics.
New materials and compounds are being explored for sodium ion, potassium ion, and magnesium ion batteries, to increase energy storage capabilities. Additional development methods, such as additive manufacturing and nanotechnology, are expected to reduce costs and accelerate market penetration of energy storage devices.
Cost considerations are prompting experts to also think of ways to reduce the need for storage. One way to strengthen the grid is building more consistently available forms of renewable energy, such as geothermal technologies that draw energy from the Earth’s heat.
