Role of Long-Duration Energy Storage in Variable Renewable Electricity Systems

September 16, 2020|0 min read

The introduction of LDS lowers total system costs relative to wind-solar-battery systems, and system costs are twice as sensitive to reductions

in LDS costs as to reductions in battery costs. In least-cost systems, batteries

are used primarily for intra-day storage and LDS is used primarily for inter-season and multi-year storage. Moreover, dependence on LDS increases when the system is optimized over more years.
