Long-duration energy storage developers argue that the overall value they provide to the grid in terms of electricity system services is not yet properly incentivised, meaning the revenue stack for projects does not always add up.
Energy storage projects that can provide additional services to the grid should be incentivised to do so by receiving additional payments above the “revenue floor” if they are eligible for the commercial long-duration energy storage cap and floor mechanism. (Paragraph 109) 41.
Long Duration Electricity Storage investment support scheme will boost investor confidence and unlock billions in funding for vital projects. The UK is a step closer to energy independence as the government launches a new scheme to help build energy storage infrastructure.
(Paragraph 32) There are long lead-in times for delivering energy storage—typically estimated around 7–10 years for most technologies. If the Government waits until there is a clear picture of exactly how supply, demand and the energy system will evolve, it cannot possibly develop storage in time for a decarbonised grid by 2035.
27. Energy storage can be used for many different roles on the electricity grid. As well as storage of electricity across different durations, Caroline Still outlined that older generators use the rotation of the generator to help in “voltage control [and] frequency control”.
Energy storage facilities provide power that can be turned on and off at will, enhancing grid flexibility. Long-duration energy storage therefore reduces costs elsewhere in the system and allows a greater proportion of cheap renewables to be built and so reduces electricity prices overall. (Paragraph 11)
