With the growing global concern about climate change and the transition to renewable energy sources, there has been a growing need for large-scale energy storage than ever before.
Great Britain’s demand for electricity could be met largely (or even wholly) by wind and solar energy supported by large-scale storage at a cost that compares favourably with the costs of low-carbon alternatives, which are not well suited to complementing intermittent wind and solar energy and variable demand.
However, there is still unlikely to be sufficient capacity for inter-seasonal storage in the UK. The push towards Green Hydrogen for electricity storage is flawed. Storing electricity via Green Hydrogen wastes 68% of the energy which means that the re-sale price has to be uncompetitively high.
It draws on studies from around the world but is focussed on the need for large-scale electrical energy storage in Great Britaina (GB) and how, and at what cost, storage needs might best be met. In 2050 Great Britain’s demand for electricity could be met by wind and solar energy supported by large-scale storage.
Demonstrators are needed before large-scale energy storage systems can be widely deployed, to identify and solve engineering and integration issuesae. In the case of large-scale hydrogen storage, supplied by electrolysers powered by wind and solar energy, enough is known to start construction nowaf, as is happening elsewhereag.
As discussed in this review, there are still numerous challenges associated with the integration of large-scale battery energy storage into the electric grid. These challenges range from scientific and technical issues, to policy issues limiting the ability to deploy this emergent technology, and even social challenges.
