The capabilities of lithium-ion battery storage in providing long-duration energy storage to global energy systems should not be overlooked, write Kotub Uddin and Sam Secher of Envision.

As the role of coal declines and ends in Australia’s NEM, huge growth in dispatchable energy storage capacity will be needed in the mix.

It is increasingly becoming recognised that energy storage is crucial in helping the UK to meet its targets for reducing emissions and ensuring reliability of the energy system. In this panel discussion from the Energy Storage Summit 2021 held earlier this year, experts and stakeholders discuss what sort of changes might need to happen to make that contribution possible.
