In general, the following development trends can be noticed: • Replacement of critical elements in the cathode by more sustainable elements with a higher natural abundancy.
Figure 19 demonstrates that batteries can store 2 to 10 times their initial primary energy over the course of their lifetime. According to estimates, the comparable numbers for CAES and PHS are 240 and 210, respectively. These numbers are based on 25,000 cycles of conservative cycle life estimations for PHS and CAES.
