Energy Storage is one of the biggest technological advancements we are watching today. Ranging from a simple home ESS solution to your grid scale MWh batteries – the methods need to evaluate and find the best solutions are tough. Which is why we are beginning to develop a series analyzing the best energy storage solutions, various technologies, their associated benefits and prices along with what the cost is to utilize.
Standardizing a way to evaluate energy storage is something greatly lacking in today’s economy. Not knowing how to look at energy storage and how it plays into a full ecosystem of varying energy solutions makes it hard to see both as a consumer and as a utility which path to take.
If you know a company in the space or want to help contribute to this development do reach out!
Stay tuned for a few other resources coming soon, including results from the smart thermostat research which will be included in this energy storage project!
