Description (excerpt):
In November 2023, C2ES launched a long-duration energy storage (LDES) technology working group – one of four technology working groups focused on developing policy solutions that will enable the deployment and commercialization of critical-path technologies. This group convenes leading voices across the power sector ecosystem, including utilities, inter-day and multi-day LDES providers, Independent System Operators/Regional Transmission Organizations (ISOs/RTOs), financiers, members of C2ES’s Business Environmental Leadership Council (BELC), and other key stakeholders. Storage technologies in scope for the first year are mechanical and electrochemical LDES with a duration of dispatch greater than ten hours. Informed by working group discussions, C2ES has published a shortlist of high-impact federal and state-level policy recommendations.
