I'm disappointed that paper contains no cost estimates. Those are the key thing with energy storage.



The paper does contain (rough) cost estimates, specifically the cost per unit of energy storage (about $13/kWh) and the cost per unit of power (from $0.20-0.27/W depending on the choice of gas.) See section V, "Cost".

I'm not impressed with the costing methodology used, but it's probably at least in the ballpark.


Here is a framework for government backed research into the topic: https://www.energy.gov/energy-storage-grand-challenge/articl...
