The Ledger
Every statement that passed quotation and attribution checks. Mix any filter with any other: certainty 1/5, debate potential 5/5, or both at once.
why aren't all 7 resolved? a statement only gets an assessment when the public record can support or contradict it. opinions and what-ifs never can, and 0 checkable ones are still open, waiting for their date. predictions held up or didn't; assertions are supported or contradicted. on every card: ▮▮▮▮▮ certainty · ▮▮▮▮▮ debate potential. speakers are clickable
Jaramillo: Grid storage value drops between 12 and 75 hours of duration
“What we find in the modeling is that there's a lot of value for sort of up to 10 or 12 hours, let's say. There is less value. I'm not going to put a specific number, but there's, there is less value that we see very markedly in the system until you get back up…”
Jaramillo: Multi-day storage halves the land footprint needed for solar buildout
“By having cost-effective multi-day storage, you can incorporate More renewable energy without sacrificing reliability at basically half, half the land cost, and that, by that I mean you only have to put solar on half as many acres to get the same benefit and t…”
Jaramillo: 100-hour lithium-ion storage cannot clear grid energy markets economically
“In the case of lithium ion, Let's say that's roughly a hundred dollars a kilowatt hour. You're adding a hundred dollars for every hour you want to discharge. And the industry normalizes around dollar per kilowatt in terms of comparative resources. So everythin…”
Jaramillo: 100-hour storage provides physical market hedge short duration cannot
“Having a hundred hour duration resource is a physical hedge against price spikes in a way that you can only really financially hedge right now unless you have, again, thermal resources. So it sort of opens up a new A new frontier for market participation in a …”
Jaramillo: Multi-day storage matches the 3-5 day duration of material weather events
“The reason why that number of hours, you know, four days roughly becomes relevant is because that's where a lot of the material weather events sort of sit in terms of duration.”
Jaramillo: Buffering transmission lines with energy storage increases their utilization
“Having storage, you know, the ability to buffer at one end or both ends makes that even more a highly utilized resource.”
Jaramillo: Multi-day energy shifting is required to resolve wind basis risk
“The ability to have a type of resource that allows you to, what we call, shape around that risk. In other words, move your energy by, you know, by days, essentially is what's required to get out of that Conundrum that, that a lot of existing plants find themse…”
