Energy is an important drive for the economic development and social growth. The energy
demand has remarkably escalated due to the technological developments in various …

BACKGROUND Net emissions of CO2 by human activities—including not only energy
services and industrial production but also land use and agriculture—must approach zero in …

Long-duration energy storage (LDES) is a potential solution to intermittency in renewable
energy generation. In this study we have evaluated the role of LDES in decarbonized …

Reliable and affordable electricity systems based on variable energy sources, such as wind
and solar may depend on the ability to store large quantities of low-cost energy over long …

If future net-zero emissions energy systems rely heavily on solar and wind resources, spatial
and temporal mismatches between resource availability and electricity demand may …

Decarbonized power systems are critical to mitigate climate change, yet methods to achieve
a reliable and resilient near-zero power system are still under exploration. This study …

China's goal of being carbon-neutral by 2060 requires a green electric power system
dominated by renewable energy. However, the potential of wind and solar alone to power …

Understanding the technical and economic challenges of achieving 100% renewable
energy (RE) electric power systems is critical, given the increasing number of United States …

We investigate the role of firm low-carbon resources in decarbonizing power generation in
combination with variable renewable resources, battery energy storage, demand flexibility …

Electrical energy storage could play a pivotal role in future low-carbon electricity systems,
balancing inflexible or intermittent supply with demand. Cost projections are important for …
