Among the in-developing large-scale Energy Storage Technologies, Pumped Thermal Electricity Storage or Pumped Heat Energy Storage is the most promising one due to its long cycle life, no geographical limitations, no need of fossil fuel streams and capability of being integrated into conventional fossil-fuelled power plants.
The technologies that are most suitable for grid-scale electricity storage are in the top right corner, with high powers and discharge times of hours or days (but not weeks or months). These are Pumped Hydropower, Hydrogen, Compressed air and Cryogenic Energy Storage (also known as ‘Liquid Air Energy Storage’ (LAES)).
Other large-scale storage technologies, including compressed air and pumped hydro have similar round-trip efficiencies – in the region of 70%. Conclusion: A number of storage technologies such as liquid air, compressed air and pumped hydro are significantly more efficient than Green Hydrogen storage.
These are Pumped Hydropower, Hydrogen, Compressed air and Cryogenic Energy Storage (also known as ‘Liquid Air Energy Storage’ (LAES)). Fig. 2 Comparison of electricity storage technologies, from .
Governments and private energy institutions globally have been working on energy storage technologies for a long time [10, 11].
