Pumped hydro makes up 152 GW or 96% of worldwide energy storage capacity operating today. Of the remaining 4% of capacity, the largest technology shares are molten salt (33%) and lithium-ion batteries (25%). Flywheels and Compressed Air Energy Storage also make up a large part of the market.
Energy storage is the capture of energy produced at one time for use at a later time [1] to reduce imbalances between energy demand and energy production. A device that stores energy is generally called an accumulator or battery. Energy comes in multiple forms including radiation, chemical, gravitational potential, electrical potential ...
The production, storage and transportation of ammonia are industrially standardized. However, the ammonia synthesis process on the exporter side is even more energy-intensive than hydrogen liquefaction. The ammonia cracking process on the importer side consumes additional energy equivalent to ~20% LHV of hydrogen.
Additionally, transporting and storing hydrogen could have an impact on the environment. The technology is expensive and has not been proven on a large scale.
