The 2022 Cost and Performance Assessment analyzes storage system at additional 24- and 100-hour durations. In September 2021, DOE launched the Long-Duration Storage Shot which aims to reduce costs by 90% in storage systems that deliver over 10 hours of duration within one decade. The analysis of longer duration storage systems supports this effort.

Australian Capital Territory (ACT) Chief Minister Andrew Barr announced on Monday that further funding has been allocated in the 2022-23 Budget to advance the Big Canberra Battery project with $100 million already dedicated to providing at least 250 MW of large-scale battery energy storage. Barr said the battery project would
READ MOREFor example, the cost of the storage required to support a 100% renewable electricity grid in Australia is about $7 MWh −1 assuming that all the storage is pumped hydro. The cost of additional transmission and periodic spillage of solar and wind energy when the storages are full brings the balancing cost to about $18 MWh −1 .
