As renewable energy sources gain prominence, energy storage becomes crucial for their integration and optimization. The paper explores various types of energy storage systems and their role in the energy transition, highlighting benefits such as renewable integration, grid stability and cost reduction.
This learning resource will discuss why energy storage is an essential part of transitioning to renewable energy, how the process works, and what challenges and opportunities exist for the future. The amount of electricity the energy grid produces should always be in balance with the amount consumers use.
Storage enables electricity systems to remain in balance despite variations in wind and solar availability, allowing for cost-effective deep decarbonization while maintaining reliability. The Future of Energy Storage report is an essential analysis of this key component in decarbonizing our energy infrastructure and combating climate change.
Ultimately, the future of renewables is inseparable from the future of energy storage. Together, they form the backbone of a sustainable, low-carbon energy future that can power economies, protect the environment, and deliver reliable energy for all.
