With the growing global concern about climate change and the transition to renewable energy sources, there has been a growing need for large-scale energy storage than ever before.
Grid energy storage, also known as large-scale energy storage, are technologies connected to the electrical power grid that store energy for later use. These systems help balance supply and demand by storing excess electricity from variable renewables such as solar and inflexible sources like nuclear power, releasing it when needed.
This work describes an improved risk assessment approach for analyzing safety designs in the battery energy storage system incorporated in large-scale solar to improve accident prevention and mitigation, via incorporating probabilistic event tree and systems theoretic analysis. The causal factors and mitigation measures are presented.
GB will need large-scale energy storage to complement high levels of wind and solar power. No low-carbon sources can do so at a comparable cost. Construction of the large-scale hydrogen storage that will be needed should begin now. royalsociety.org/electricity-storage.
In 2050 Great Britain’s demand for electricity could be met by wind and solar energy supported by large-scale storage. The cost of complementing direct wind and solar supply with storage compares very favourably with the cost of low-carbon alternatives. Further, storage has the potential to provide greater energy security.
There will also be a role for other, more efficient, types of storage. Nuclear power, and burning biomass (and perhaps some natural gas) and capturing the carbon-dioxide, may also play a role; however, these forms of generation are not well to suited to providing all of the flexibility that will be needed to complement wind and solar power.
