The advantages of using depleted reservoirs for energy storage are the availability of detailed geological information and historical production records, lower exploration costs and shorter construction periods.
Renewable energy integration and decarbonization of world energy systems are made possible by the use of energy storage technologies. As a result, it provides significant benefits with regard to ancillary power services, quality, stability, and supply reliability.
Our investment in energy storage evolves with our grid, creating long-term benefit and reliability for years to come. Energy storage is a critical hub for the entire grid, augmenting resources from wind, solar and hydro, to nuclear and fossil fuels, to demand side resources and system efficiency assets.
However, under current management, the reservoir storage capacity needed for flow regulation is a non-renewable resource because this capacity is steadily being lost to sedimentation. Today’s reservoirs occupy unique sites and may be considered largely irreplaceable, making the nation dependent on a non-sustainable resource.
When demand shifts and baseload resources can’t react quickly enough, energy storage can be there. In simplest terms, energy storage enables electricity to be saved for a later, when and where it is most needed. This creates efficiencies and capabilities for the electric grid—including the ability to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
