This study presents the life cycle assessment (LCA) of three batteries for plug-in hybrid and full performance battery electric vehicles. A transparent life cycle inventory (LCI) was compiled in a component-wise manner for nickel metal hydride (NiMH), nickel cobalt manganese lithium-ion (NCM), and iron phosphate lithium-ion (LFP) batteries. The battery systems were
The global shift towards renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar, brings with it the challenge of intermittency. Energy storage solutions have emerged as pivotal in ensuring grid
However, the battery energy storage system (BESS), with the right conditions, will allow for a significant shift of power and transport to free or less greenhouse gas (GHG)
The EcS risk assessment framework presented would benefit the Malaysian Energy Commission and Sustainable Energy Development Authority in increased adoption of battery storage systems with large-scale solar plants, contributing to IRENA 2050 energy transformation scenario targets for global temperature control and net zero carbon emissions.

But the review does not include a comparative environmental assessment of different storage types. There is a scarcity of review articles that provide useful information on the life cycle energy use and GHG emissions associated with different energy storage technologies focusing on utility-scale stationary applications. Moreover, many cost numbers presented in
We therefore present a systematic environmental comparison of energy storage systems providing different products. As potential products, we consider the reconversion to power but also mobility, heat, fuels and chemical feedstock. Using life cycle assessment, we determine the environmental impacts avoided by using 1 MW h of surplus electricity
This paper presents a comparative life cycle assessment of cumulative energy demand (CED) and global warming potential (GWP) of four stationary battery technologies: lithium-ion, lead-acid, sodium–sulfur, and vanadium-redox-flow. The analyses were carried out for a complete utilization of their cycle life and for six different stationary applications. Due to its
The objective of this study is to conduct a life cycle assessment of P2G business models, where as an advancement to former studies the option to store a renewable energy product as hydrogen or methane in a pore space is given, and to assess related potential environmental impacts. The results are integral part of an overall risk assessment of
Life cycle assessment (LCA) is a methodology that enables the environmental assessment of products or services by collecting all material and energy flows that are exchanged with the environment throughout a life cycle.
However, the battery energy storage system (BESS), with the right conditions, will allow for a significant shift of power and transport to free or less greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by linking both sectors together and converting renewable energy (RE) to a reliable base rather than an alternative source.
Centralised, front-of-the-meter battery energy storage systems are an option to support and add flexibility to distribution networks with increasing distributed photovoltaic systems, which generate renewable energy locally and help decarbonise the power sector. However, the provision of specific services at distribution level remains under development for real
In this chapter, stationary energy storage systems are assessed concerning their environmental impacts via life-cycle assessment (LCA). The considered storage technologies are pumped hydroelectric storage, different types of batteries and heat storage.
The sustainability assessment of the Storage accounts for the environmental Life Cycle Assessment (eLCA), the Life Cycle Costing (LCC) as well as for the geopolitical risk of materials (GRMs). Within the boundary of the investigated system are included both the manufacturing and the operational phase. The end-of-life is instead outside the

Environmental assessment of energy storage systems - Energy & Environmental Science (RSC Publishing) Power-to-What? – Environmental assessment of energy storage systems † A large variety of energy storage systems are currently investigated for using surplus power from intermittent renewable energy sources.
The sustainability assessment of the Storage accounts for the environmental Life Cycle Assessment (eLCA), the Life Cycle Costing (LCC) as well as for the geopolitical risk of materials (GRMs). Within the boundary of the investigated system are included both the manufacturing and the operational phase.
As potential products, we consider the reconversion to power but also mobility, heat, fuels and chemical feedstock. Using life cycle assessment, we determine the environmental impacts avoided by using 1 MW h of surplus electricity in the energy storage systems instead of producing the same product in a conventional process.
