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

Distributed, grid-connected energy storage at customer sites is a newer storage technology that has become more prevalent as battery costs have declined. Over the past decade, battery and thermal storage have been used more frequently in commer-cial buildings (see Table 1 for more information on energy storage types).18,19,20
