High capital cost and low energy density make the unit cost of energy stored ($/kWh) more expensive than alternatives technologies. Long duration energy storage traditionally favors technologies with low self-discharge that cost less per unit of energy stored.
Power to Gas technologies, once established on the market, may also provide long-term electricity storage at even lower LCOS. Pumped-Storage Hydroelectricity is also the cheapest technology for short-term storage systems. Battery systems at the moment still have high costs but are expected to have a sharp price decrease in the near future.
The ratio of charging/discharging unit power and storage capacity is important. PSH and CAES are low-cost technologies for short-term energy storage. PtG technologies will be more cost efficient for long-term energy storage. LCOS for battery technologies can reach about 20 €ct/kWh in the future.
Since a single TWh is typically consumed in less than 5 minutes globally, a TWh of battery capacity can only cover a few minutes of global energy consumption before they need to be recharged. Scaling storage capacity up to 10,000 TWh allows to store a month of final energy and several months of electricity.
The energy storage capacity of an MPH system averages around 20 MWh depending on the location, size, and pump-turbine unit, but can be interconnected as a modular pod to extend the storage capacity.
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.
