Repurposing Idle Wells for Energy Storage

THEMES LLC

Thermal Mechanical Energy Storage Consulting

THEMES aims to provide the cheapest grid-scale dispatchable 24/7 carbon-free power, cheaper than natural gas generation, by coupling variable renewable generation (solar and/or wind) to grid-scale geological Long Duration Energy Storage (LDES). THEMES' LDES solution repurposes idle oil & gas well infrastructure for compressed air energy storage (CAES), a form of thermal-mechanical energy storage.

DOE Long Duration Earth Shot Goal

The DOE is aiming to reduce energy storage costs by 90% to achieve an Levelized Cost Of Storage (LCOS) of $0.05/kWh in storage systems with 10+ hours of duration, all in the next 10 years. THEMES subsurface solutions allow for the reduction in cost that thermal and mechanical storage solutions need
