Think about the example above of the difference between a light bulb and an AC unit. If you have a 5 kW, 10 kWh battery, you can only run your AC unit for two hours (4.8 kW 2 hours = 9.6 kWh). However, that same battery would be able to keep 20 lightbulbs on for two full days (0.012 kW 20 lightbulbs * 42 hours = 10 kWh).
Unlike residential energy storage systems, whose technical specifications are expressed in kilowatts, utility-scale battery storage is measured in megawatts (1 megawatt = 1,000 kilowatts). A typical residential solar battery will be rated to provide around 5 kilowatts of power. It can store between 10 and 15 kilowatt-hours of usable
Based on cost and energy density considerations, lithium iron phosphate batteries, a subset of lithium-ion batteries, are still the preferred choice for grid-scale storage.
