Capacity expansion modelling (CEM) approaches need to account for the value of energy storage in energy-system decarbonization. A new Review considers the representation of energy storage in the CEM literature and identifies approaches to overcome the challenges such approaches face when it comes to better informing policy and investment decisions.
Geomechanical energy storage, which pumps water undergound to store energy in the elastic compression of rock formations, may achieve costs in the $50/kWh range, suitable for diurnal applications, but would need significantly lower costs to capture significant market share as a LDES technology.
Nature Energy 8, 1199–1208 (2023) Cite this article To meet ambitious global decarbonization goals, electricity system planning and operations will change fundamentally. With increasing reliance on variable renewable energy resources, energy storage is likely to play a critical accompanying role to help balance generation and consumption patterns.

Provided by the Springer Nature SharedIt content-sharing initiative Long-duration energy storage (LDES) is a potential solution to intermittency in renewable energy generation.
Other work has indicated that energy storage technologies with longer storage durations, lower energy storage capacity costs and the ability to decouple power and energy capacity scaling could enable cost-effective electricity system decarbonization with all energy supplied by VRE 8, 9, 10.
