Compared with heat and cold energy, electricity is more suitable for long-distance transmission. Therefore, in the grid side, electricity storage must be carried out to solve the large difference between peak and valley power and increase the share of renewable energy generation.
Electrical Energy Storage, EES, is one of the key technologies in the areas covered by the IEC. EES techniques have shown unique capabilities in coping with some critical characteristics of electricity, for example hourly variations in demand and price.
Thermodynamic electricity storage adopts the thermal processes such as compression, expansion, heating and cooling to convert electrical energy into pressure energy, heat energy or cold energy for storage in the low period of power consumption, and then convert the stored energy into electrical energy at the peak of electricity consumption.
Since the early days of electricity, people have tried various methods to store electricity. One of the earliest devices was the Leyden jar which is a simple electrostatic capacitor that could store less than a micro Joule of energy. The battery has been the most popular in storing electricity as it has higher energy density.
However, such storage systems become vi-able and economically reasonable only if the grids have to carry and distribute large amounts of vol-atile electricity from REs. The fi rst demonstration and pilot plants are currently under construction (e.g. in Europe).
The IEC is convinced that electrical energy storage will be indispensable to reaching these public policy goals. It is therefore essential that deployment of storage should receive long-term and robust support from policy-makers and regulators.
