Typical energy storage capacity compared to typical discharge duration for various geologic and nongeologic energy storage methods
linkFigure 3 from USGS Fact Sheet 2022-3082. Graph of typical energy storage capacity compared to typical discharge duration for various geologic and nongeologic energy storage methods. Oval sizes are estimated based on current technology. Modified from Crotogino and others (2017) and Matos and others (2019).
