FAQs 6

What is energy storage duration?

When we talk about energy storage duration, we’re referring to the time it takes to charge or discharge a unit at maximum power. Let’s break it down: Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS): Lithium-ion BESS typically have a duration of 1–4 hours. This means they can provide energy services at their maximum power capacity for that timeframe.

How long does a battery energy storage system last?

Let’s break it down: Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS): Lithium-ion BESS typically have a duration of 1–4 hours. This means they can provide energy services at their maximum power capacity for that timeframe. Pumped Hydro Storage: In contrast, technologies like pumped hydro can store energy for up to 10 hours.

What is an energy storage system battery?

Like a common household battery, an energy storage system battery has a “duration” of time that it can sustain its power output at maximum use. The capacity of the battery is the total amount of energy it holds and can discharge.

What is a battery's average duration?

A battery's average duration is the amount of time a battery can contribute electricity at its nameplate power capacity until it runs out. Batteries used for electricity load shifting have relatively long durations. We calculate a battery’s duration by using the ratio of energy capacity (measured in megawatthours [MWh]) to power capacity (in MW).

How do you calculate a battery's duration?

We calculate a battery’s duration by using the ratio of energy capacity (measured in megawatthours [MWh]) to power capacity (in MW). Energy capacity refers to the total amount of energy these batteries can store. Our energy capacity data come from our most recent Annual Electric Generator Report, which contains data through the end of 2020.

Can energy storage be used for a long duration?

If the grid has a very high load for eight hours and the storage only has a 6-hour duration, the storage system cannot be at full capacity for eight hours. So, its ELCC and its contribution will only be a fraction of its rated power capacity. An energy storage system capable of serving long durations could be used for short durations, too.
