Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) and hydrogen (H 2) are promising technologies for short- and long-duration energy storage, respectively. A hybrid LIB-H 2 energy storage system could thus offer a more cost-effective and reliable solution to balancing demand in renewable microgrids.
Battery energy-storage systems typically include batteries, battery-management systems, power-conversion systems and energy-management systems 21 (Fig. 2b).
Compared to Just LIB or Just H2, the hybrid system provided significant cost reductions (see Fig. 5). Relying on only LIB for energy storage ($74.8 million) was more expensive than relying on only H 2 ($59.2 million), and significantly more expensive than the hybrid case ($43.3 million).
The rise in renewable energy utilization is increasing demand for battery energy-storage technologies (BESTs). BESTs based on lithium-ion batteries are being developed and deployed. However, this technology alone does not meet all the requirements for grid-scale energy storage.
The flagship battery storage project commenced operations on February 1, only days before cutting ties with the Russian power grid. Estonian state-owned energy company Eesti Energia has inaugurated the nation’s largest battery energy storage facility at the Auvere industrial complex in Ida-Viru County.
The battery energy storage park and its substation will be connected to the electricity transmission network using a 330kV AC underground cable, marking a first in Estonia. Baltic Storage Platform confirmed that the BESS will seek to ensure the stability and resilience of the Estonian electricity grid.
Estonia’s climate minister, Yoko Alender, emphasized the role of storage systems in this transition, stating, “Estonia has a clear goal – by 2030, the amount of electricity we consume must come from renewable sources.
Estonia has laid the cornerstone for what will become the largest battery park in continental Europe, marking a crucial step toward synchronizing the Baltic power grids with the rest of Europe by 2025.
Tapping into the limited but existing opportunities for deploying energy storage systems (ESS) is vital for expanding their role in Indonesiaʼs power sector. At present, the greatest potential for ESS deployment lies in smaller and/or isolated systems, as well as in industrial or large scale commercial solar rooftop PV with BESS.
The facility’s importance is underscored by Indonesia’s limited oil reserves, which currently last only 21 days. Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Bahlil Lahadalia emphasized the urgency of increasing storage capacity to safeguard the nation’s energy resilience.
Read here! Indonesia plans to build a major oil storage facility near Singapore, aiming to enhance energy self-sufficiency, reduce reliance on volatile global markets, and strengthen national energy resilience.
As the Oliver Wyman study notes, neither Indonesia’s grid nor its storage infrastructure is currently ready to absorb significantly more renewables. Long-Duration Energy Storage (LDES) is crucial for balancing supply and demand over days and seasons, enabling a reliable supply of Indonesia renewable energy.
