key statements:<br />

Battery storage applications<br />

are limited in the hour range<br />

<strong>Energy</strong> storage >100 MW can<br />

only be addressed by<br />

Pumped Hydro, Compressed<br />

Air (CAES) and Hydrogen<br />

The potential to extend<br />

pumped hydro capacities is<br />

very limited<br />

CAES has limitations in<br />

operational flexibility and<br />

capacity<br />
