6 FAQs about [Grid procurement of energy storage]

Does grid energy storage have a supply chain resilience?

This report provides an overview of the supply chain resilience associated with several grid energy storage technologies. It provides a map of each technology’s supply chain, from the extraction of raw materials to the production of batteries or other storage systems, and discussion of each supply chain step.

Why are utilities pursuing energy storage technologies?

Driven by the need to integrate variable energy sources like wind and solar, as well as significant tax credits established by last year’s Inflation Reduction Act, utilities are aggressively pursuing energy storage technologies. At the end of 2019, there were 958 megawatts (MW) of battery energy storage on the US grid.

Which technologies are commercially available for grid storage?

Several technologies are commercially available or will likely be commercially available for grid storage in the near-term. The technologies evaluated provide storage durations that range from hours to days and response times of milliseconds to minutes. Four families of battery technologies and three LDES technologies are evaluated.

How can energy storage help the electric grid?

Three distinct yet interlinked dimensions can illustrate energy storage’s expanding role in the current and future electric grid—renewable energy integration, grid optimization, and electrification and decentralization support.
