As the share of U.S. power generation from variable renewable energy (VRE) grows, a new vision is taking shape for long-duration energy storage (LDES) to ensure affordable and reliable electricity. In this vision, LDES is deployed at large scale to provide resource adequacy1 to the grid and support decarbonization of the electricity system.
