Another option with chemical energy storage is to convert electricity into basic chemical materials (methanol) or liquid fuels (power-to-liquid). These liquid fuels would be particularly useful in transport segments requiring high energy densities such as aviation (Fig. 11). Fig. 11.
The most prevalent forms of chemical energy storage in use today are liquid hydrocarbons, electrochemical, such as reversible batteries, biomass, and gas (e.g., hydrogen and methane).
Chemical Energy Storage systems, including hydrogen storage and power-to-fuel strategies, enable long-term energy retention and efficient use, while thermal energy storage technologies facilitate waste heat recovery and grid stability.
Depending on how it is stored, it can be kept over long periods and is not seasonally dependent like pumped hydro. Chemical storage can add power into the grid and also store excess power from the grid for later use. Alternatively, many chemicals used for energy storage, like hydrogen, can decarbonize industry and transportation.
Chemical energy storage scientists are working closely with PNNL’s electric grid researchers, analysts, and battery researchers. For example, we have developed a hydrogen fuel cell valuation tool that provides techno-economic analysis to inform industry and grid operators on how hydrogen generation and storage can benefit their local grid.
