Summary: Delaying battery replacement has significant economic benefits, as letting the battery degrade to 50% of initial capacity is comparable to a 30% reduction in battery capital cost during the project lifetime. The ability of a building to benefit from solar-plus-storage depends on the degradation limit and tariff structure, but not strongly on load pattern and size. Time-of-use tariffs are expected to promote rapid cost-effective adoption of PV systems with batteries in commercial buildings in the near future.

Summary: Low-cost, large-scale energy storage for 10 to 100 hours is crucial for transitioning to a carbon neutral power grid dominated by intermittent renewable energy sources. The technical feasibility of Mg-Mn-O redox thermochemical storage in a pressure vessel configuration using pressurized air for oxidation and suction for reduction has been demonstrated. Testing of a bench-scale prototype showed no technical issues, supporting further scale-up of the concept.
