This special issue encompasses a collection of eight scholarly articles that address various aspects of large-scale energy storage. The
Pumped Hydro Storage is usually considered the cheapest form of large-scale energy storage. It uses two water reservoirs at different heights to store and generate power.
Of the listed storage options lithium-ion battery storage offers the best energy density, second only to flywheels. From a capacity cost perspective we observe that thermal storage offers the cheapest storage, then mechanical storage (excluding flywheels) and then battery power.
From the electrical storage categories, capacitors, supercapacitors, and superconductive magnetic energy storage devices are identified as appropriate for high power applications. Besides, thermal energy storage is identified as suitable in seasonal and bulk energy application areas.
Part three compares energy density and capacity cost of several energy storage techniques. Capacity cost and required area are significant when considering storage densities in the TerraWatt-hour range. Thermal storage has the lowest cost. Part four compares the efficiency and energy leakage of the storage techniques of part 3.
Zakeri and Syri also report that the most cost-efficient energy storage systems are pumped hydro and compressed air energy systems for bulk energy storage, and flywheels for power quality and frequency regulation applications.
Note that other categorizations of energy storage types have also been used such as electrical energy storage vs thermal energy storage, and chemical vs mechanical energy storage types, including pumped hydro, flywheel and compressed air energy storage.
