The measured performance is promising with a mechanical-to-mechanical energy efficiency over 93% and an estimated electricity-to-electricity RTE around 75% [40]. 2.1.3. HES is defined as an alternative fuel energy storage technology in this study. HES through power-to-grid (PtG) has attracted significant attentions.
At the same time, the scaling up effect on the efficiency of storage has never been assessed for this energy storage technology. Accordingly, the following study presents the first assessment of the round-trip efficiency (RTE) of GES system using a novel multi-domain simulation tool.
The resulting overall round-trip efficiency of GES varies between 65 % and 90 %. Compared to other energy storage technologies, PHES''s efficiency ranges between 65 % and 87 %; while for CAES, the efficiency is between 57 % and 80 %. Flywheel energy storage presents the best efficiency which varies between 70 % and 90 % [14].
