WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) today released its draft Energy Storage Strategy and Roadmap (SRM), a plan
This SRM does not address new policy actions, nor does it specify budgets and resources for future activities. This Energy Storage SRM responds to the Energy Storage Strategic Plan periodic update requirement of the Better Energy Storage Technology (BEST) section of the Energy Policy Act of 2020 (42 U.S.C. § 17232 (b) (5)).
The 2022 Biennial Energy Storage Review serves the purpose defined in EISA Section 641(e)(5) and presents the Subcommittee’s and EAC’s findings and recommendations for DOE.
Approximately 16 states have adopted some form of energy storage policy, which broadly fall into the following categories: procurement targets, regulatory adaption, demonstration programs, financial incentives, and consumer protections. Below we give an overview of each of these energy storage policy categories.
Critical services can benefit from policy improvements that enable greater adoption of energy storage, including the use of energy storage as an alternative to backup diesel generators and regulatory cost models that allow grid storage to be repurposed for emergency services.
The 2020 Cost and Performance Assessment provided installed costs for six energy storage technologies: lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, lead-acid batteries, vanadium redox flow batteries, pumped storage hydro, compressed-air energy storage, and hydrogen energy storage.
To provide resilience benefits, the energy storage must stand ready (charged) when needed. Difficulty to site. The longer duration storage technologies available today are not well-suited for being transported, sited, and installed to support disaster-related needs, such as at community gathering places. Distribution feeder support.
