The project will provide services to maintain balance within the power grid, enabling more renewables to be connected securely to the UK energy system. The batteries will allow Galp to store the solar energy produced in periods of high generation, and to deploy it during periods of high demand, alleviating stress from the power grid.

Even without carbon pricing, wind power is set to be 40 per cent cheaper than gas-fired power in Alberta and Ontario by 2030. Our analysis also explores the costs of using battery storage to complement wind and solar power, finding that, even with storage included, both are still highly cost-competitive.

These plants are in an arid region, with little access to water for power plant cooling. So, during the heat of the summer and without water cooling, binary power plants become less efficient. One binary plant in Nevada also uses solar thermal, which makes me think about companies like RayGen in Australia.
