Decarbonize with energy storage solutions
Transition to renewable energy is recognized as a vital step in decarbonization. However, renewables offer us an intermittent supply, quite different from the nonstop nature of supply from fossil sources. Therefore, to transition successfully, we must surmount the challenges of balancing supply and demand. When we source power from renewable origins, the peaks and troughs in energy generation differ greatly from the pattern of consumption.
Energy storage solutions – supporting renewable energy
We need energy storage to bridge the gap between disparate levels of energy supply and demand at specific times of day. For example, at noon solar PV energy production is at its peak, and at nighttime there is none. The energy consumption curve can be diametrically opposite: peak demand occurs in the evening and early morning, whereas demand is low at noon.
When we understand that energy storage is key in enabling supply to match consumption, then it’s a small step to realizing its significance in reaching our climate targets. To decarbonize adequately, it is vital for society to take the giant step of implementing energy storage at multi-gigawatt scale. Only this volume of storage is capable of enabling a renewables-based grid to deliver supply reliable enough to match the stability of a traditional fossil-fuel-based grid.
