Energy storage can smooth out or firm wind- and solar-farm output; that is, it can reduce the variability of power produced at a given moment. The incremental price for firming wind power can be as low as two to three cents per kilowatt-hour. Solar-power firming generally costs as much as ten cents per kilowatt-hour, because solar farms

Thermal energy storage: The revival of a 200-year-old idea. A decade ago, we started working on a low-cost, large-scale solution that turns excess electricity into heat: Electrical Thermal Energy Storage (ETES). It is based on similar ideas by the Swedish American John Ericsson all the way back in the 1850s.
