Long-term energy storage is needed in addition to intermittent renewable energy sources in order to achieve a fully decarbonized grid, and development of long-term energy storage facilities will become increasingly important in the next several decades as states like California strive to phase out the use of fossil fuels. Storage options include batteries, thermal, or mechanical systems.
