Ample renewable generation and sufficient storage (such as grid scale batteries or other long duration energy storage) will ensure critical industry equipment
Currently storage of electrical energy in Australia consists of a small number of pumped hydroelectric facilities and grid-scale batteries, and a diversity of battery storage systems at small scale, used mainly for backup. To balance energy use across the Australian economy, heat and fuel (chemical energy) storage are also required.
Compressed air, thermal energy and redox flow batteries are just some of the alternative forms of long duration energy storage available in Australia. These technologies bring remarkable energy carrying capabilities, helping to maintain reliability while minimising the cost of the transition.
In addition to helping meet Australia’s demand for electricity storage, hydrogen storage will be required for distribution and buffering for various end users, and thermal energy storage will be needed when renewable process heat is used in industrial production.
Renewable storage technologies have the potential to revolutionise clean and reliable energy access in remote communities, support cost-effective decarbonisation in industry and transform Australia into a green hydrogen export superpower.
434 Godfrey et al. (2017) The role of energy storage in Australia’s future energy supply mix. Australian Council of Learned Academies, Melbourne. 435 Internal source. Maximum storage duration: Typically deployed for 12–24 hours. However, can provide energy for short- and medium-duration needs.
Supporting Australia’s diverse end-use and regional energy needs will require storage technology commercialisation and scale up. These activities need to take advantage of both existing commercial technologies and those that are currently in development and reaching commercial milestones.
