What is Long Duration Energy Storage (LDES) and Why It’s Crucial for a Sustainable Future

🌍 What is Long Duration Energy Storage (LDES)? Long Duration Energy Storage (LDES) refers to energy storage systems that can discharge energy continuously for more than 10 hours, unlike traditional short-term batteries. LDES solutions are designed to store excess electricity—often from renewable sources like solar or wind—and release it during periods of high demand, outages, […]
