As the pressure to decarbonize electricity grids mounts, so does the need to have long-term storage options for power generated from renewables. While rechargeable batteries are the solution of choice for consumer-level use, they are impractical for grid-scale consideration.

The company is building these shipping container systems, which work like giant batteries that store energy as heat and pressurized air , rather than a chemical reaction (Cheesecake’s name is derived from a nerdy acronym for their technology.) They gradually lose capacity with each discharge and recharge cycle, and they can be fire hazards.

The winning concepts were: A molten air battery that uses a molten salt electrolyte at elevated temperature from Professor Stuart Licht at George Washington University. A novel rechargeable zinc battery from the research group of Professors Paul Wright and James Evans from the University of California, Berkeley.

That’s because liquified gas has a lower viscosity than carbonate-based electrolytes, which allows the lithium salt to move from one electrode to the other at a faster rate, shortening the time it takes to recharge the battery. The Houston-based company’s geoengineered system stores energy as pressurized water deep underground.

MIT professor Donald Sadoway and his team have demonstrated a long-cycle-life calcium-metal-based liquid-metal rechargeable battery for grid-scale energy storage, overcoming the problems that have precluded the use of the element: its high melting temperature, high reactivity and unfavorably high solubility in molten salts.
