Really hoping to see power2gas facilities scale up. Gas storage seems like the most credible solution for stable, season-scale, grid-scale energy storage. Of course there are large conversion inefficiencies in a chain like wind->electricity->electrolysis->hydrogen->CCGT, but that’s where massive overbuilding of renewable generation capacity comes in.
The UK is aiming to have 50GW of wind capacity by 2030. It needs at least 300GW to decarbonize and ensure energy security.
