Storage Requirements and Costs of Shaping Renewable Energy Toward Grid Decarbonization
Micah S. Ziegler,Joshua M. Mueller,Gonçalo D. Pereira,Juhyun Song,M. Ferrara,Yet-Ming Chiang,Jessika E. Trancik,Jessika E. Trancik +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare the performance of wind and solar energy with storage to meet various demand profiles and estimate that energy storage capacity costs below a roughly $20/kWh target would allow a wind-solar mix to provide cost-competitive baseload electricity in resource-abundant locations such as Texas and Arizona.
