Long-duration energy storage – defined as systems that can store energy for more than 10 hours at a time – would support a low-cost, reliable, carbon-free electric grid. And energy storage can increase local control of the power system and build resilience for communities, including by minimizing power grid disruptions.

Hailed as the greatest invention of the 20th century , our now-aging grid was based on fundamental concepts that made sense at the time it was developed. The original foundation was a combination of “base load” coal plants that operated 24 hours a day and large-scale hydropower. Innovations that make 100% clean power possible.

First, nationwide transmission allows power-sharing across regions facing widely different weather systems that drive variation in wind and solar generation. All of these benefits can be captured with solar, wind, existing hydropower and lithium-ion battery technologies at projected 2030 prices, he added.
