[PDF Version]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.
Storage enables electricity systems to remain in balance despite variations in wind and solar availability, allowing for cost-effective deep decarbonization while maintaining reliability. The Future of Energy Storage report is an essential analysis of this key component in decarbonizing our energy infrastructure and combating climate change.
Energy storage creates a buffer in the power system that can absorb any excess energy in periods when renewables produce more than is required. This stored energy is then sent back to the grid when supply is limited.
In January 2022, the National Development and Reform Commission and the National Energy Administration jointly issued the Implementation Plan for the Development of New Energy Storage during the 14th Five-Year Plan Period, emphasizing the fundamental role of new energy storage technologies in a new power system.
New materials and compounds are being explored for sodium ion, potassium ion, and magnesium ion batteries, to increase energy storage capabilities. Additional development methods, such as additive manufacturing and nanotechnology, are expected to reduce costs and accelerate market penetration of energy storage devices.

In terms of energy storage capability, the commercially accessible supercapacitors can offer higher energy density (e.g., 5 Wh kg −1) than conventional electrolytic capacitors, though still lower than the batteries (up to ≈1000 Wh kg −1).
Despite the advancements in improving the energy storage density of supercapacitors, their energy storage capacity remains limited. The hybrid energy storage system's purpose is to bridge this gap by attaining battery-like energy content while preserving the high-power output and long cycle life of supercapacitors.
A safe and robust electricity storage device with high energy and power densities has the potential to revolutionize energy harvesting, distribution, and utility. Moreover, the demand for more reliable and compact power systems in military, consumer, and industrial applications continues to drive advancements in this area.
