HOME / National Standard For Energy Storage Materials Why It - KKA Industrial Storage
Department of Energy's Office of Electricity Delivery and Energy Reliability Energy Storage Systems Program, with the support of Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) and Sandia National Laboratories (SNL), and in collaboration with a number of stakeholders, developed a protocol (i., pre-standard) for measuring and expressing the performance characteristics for energy storage systems.
The protocol is serving as a resource for development of U.S. standards and has been formatted for consideration by IEC Technical Committee 120 on energy storage systems. Without this document, committees developing standards would have to start from scratch. WHAT'S NEXT FOR PERFORMANCE?
The goals of the workshop were to: 1) bring together all of the key stakeholders in the energy storage community, 2) share knowledge on safety validation, commissioning, and operations, and 3) identify the current gaps in understanding, managing, standardizing and validating safety in energy storage systems.
As a protocol or pre-standard, the ability to determine system performance as desired by energy systems consumers and driven by energy systems producers is a reality. The protocol is serving as a resource for development of U.S. standards and has been formatted for consideration by IEC Technical Committee 120 on energy storage systems.

National pricing snapshot for utility-scale storage projects generally ranges from $200 to $520 per kWh installed, with most utility-scale projects clustering around $300–$420 per kWh for typical 1–4 hour durations. The battery storage technologies do not calculate levelized cost of energy (LCOE) or levelized cost of storage (LCOS) and so do not use financial assumptions. Department of Energy's (DOE) Energy Storage Grand Challenge is a comprehensive program that seeks to accelerate. There is a need for a trusted benchmark price that has a well understood and internally consistent methodology so comparing the different technology options across different power and energy levels produces a reliable answer.
