Conclusions Electricity storage is a key technology for the long-term decarbonisation of power grids by facilitating the effective integration of variable renewables at large scale. The short-term impact of storage deployment and operation on electricity-related carbon dioxide emissions, however, has received scant attention in the literature.
Energy storage can provide a variety of services and its economic rationale is highly application-dependent 8. Numerous studies optimize the size and operation of energy storage within a specific power system to achieve the best economic or environmental outcome.
Integrating energy storage into the grid can have different environmental and economic impacts, which depend on performance requirements, location, and characteristics of the energy storage system 14, 15, 16. The cost of energy storage systems and regulatory challenges are major obstacles to their adoption 13, 17, 18, 19.
The need to co-optimize storage with other elements of the electricity system, coupled with uncertain climate change impacts on demand and supply, necessitate advances in analytical tools to reliably and efficiently plan, operate, and regulate power systems of the future.
