The first half of the new energy revolution is electrification, new energy vehicles and lithium batteries, and the second half is intelligence, energy storage, hydrogen energy and smart driving. Why is energy storage so important? All countries pay more attention to building a new energy system. Photovoltaic and wind power generation are installed quickly, but power generation is still unstable and there are difficulties in connecting to the grid. How to solve it? A large amount of energy storage is needed.
At present, the energy storage industry presents two major development trends:
Trend 1: Long-term energy storage is the next hot spot. As the proportion of wind and solar power generation further increases to 50%-80%, the demand for energy storage duration will expand to more than 10 hours, and long-term energy storage will become the "lowest cost flexibility solution."
Trend 2: New energy storage enters a period of rapid growth.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of the current new energy storage technologies: sodium ion batteries, solid-state batteries, flow battery energy storage, hydrogen energy storage, hybrid energy storage, compressed air energy storage and other technical routes? Which energy storage technology route will become mainstream in the future?
