Although energy storage technologies still face certain challenges in terms of cost, efficiency, and large-scale application, with ongoing research and development and increased policy support, the future development prospects of energy storage technologies are vast.
Development Status of Various Energy-Storage Technologies [13, 36]. The table presents a summary of the development status, application directions, and key advantages and disadvantages of various energy-storage technologies. Overall, mechanical energy storage, particularly pumped hydro storage, is the most mature technology.
In March 2022, National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) and National Energy Administration (NEA) released the 14th Five-Year Plan for the development of energy storage, which set the target for ES to enter the stage of large-scale development by 2025. The target calls for lower costs of ES.
In future developments, innovations in energy storage technologies will further enhance their role in the energy transition. For instance, improving the energy density of battery containers is an important direction in the development of current battery technologies.
