at its core, the diversity of LDES can provide essential services. In the LDES Council''s inaugural 2021 market analysis, the global need for LDES by 2040 was estimated at 1.5-2.5 TW of power capacity and 85-140 TWh of energy capacity. A subsequent study in 2022. 1. explored
Net-zero power: Long-duration energy storage for a renewable grid
One answer, explored in a new industry report with insights and analysis from McKinsey, is long-duration energy storage (LDES). The report, authored by the LDES Council, a newly founded, CEO-led organization, is based on more than 10,000 cost and performance data points from council technology member companies.
The value of long-duration energy storage under various grid
We find that a) LDES is particularly valuable in majority wind-powered regions and regions with diminishing hydropower generation, b) seasonal operation of storage becomes cost-effective if

NSW to maintain 8-hour minimum duration for LDES. Another aspect that brought debate across the energy industry was a plan to reduce the LDES definition to 4-hours in New South Wales, something the global LDES Council trade association argued against, stating that it "strongly recommends" maintaining an 8-hour duration.
COP28: Statkraft and Aquabattery partner to develop flow
Aquabattery has developed a Long Duration Energy Storage (LDES) flow battery technology in which energy can be stored with table salt and water. LDES is energy storage with duration exceeding six hours. Today, large-scale battery energy storage systems typically have duration between one and four hours.

Evaluating emerging long-duration energy storage technologies
In contrast to short-duration energy storage technologies, where Li-ion batteries are projected to dominate by 2030 [15, 16], the market for LDES technologies contains a more diverse set of competitive players, ranging from traditionally dominant storage technologies such as pumped storage hydropower and compressed air storage, to emerging technologies from
Unlocking the potential of long-duration energy storage:
LDES technologies are crucial for achieving net-zero emissions, necessitating international collaboration in R&D. Recent advancements have enhanced LDES performance: flow batteries now offer over 10-hour discharge durations, TES systems achieve up to 95 % efficiency, and CAES reaches 70 % efficiency with adiabatic processes.
Germany plans long-duration energy storage auctions for 2025
The energy storage system integrator''s European policy and markets director added that the door could be open for much more LDES in the proposed second tranche of Power Plant Safety Act procurements. While the 5GW was originally earmarked to be awarded to gas plants, BMWK has been directed to include a technology-neutral approach.

LDES Deployment Roadmap. LDES technologies are essential for the decarbonisation of energy systems, including the power system and industrial heat. LDES must scale up to 50 times faster than is currently projected, from the current 0.22 terawatt (TW) deployment pipeline that is recorded in the LDES Council''s project database, to as much as 8
UK investment scheme to boost energy storage infrastructure
Other technologies, such as liquid air energy storage, compressed air energy storage and flow batteries, could also benefit from the scheme. Studies suggest that deploying 20GW of LDES could save the electricity system £24bn between 2025 and 2050, potentially reducing household energy bills as reliance on costly natural gas decreases.
