Thermal energy storage will outcompete other batteries and hydrogen for avoiding renewable curtailments and integrating more solar? Overlooked advantages are discussed in this 21-page report, plus a fast-evolving company landscape….
…are also, in our view, prohibitively high. And without a willingness to pay very high green premia, we expect it may be hard to displace hydrocarbons using electro-chemical fuels. https://thundersaidenergy.com/2023/01/17/green-hydrogen-alkaline-versus-pem-electrolysers/…
