The increasing integration of renewable energy sources introduces significant long-term uncertainty to power systems, creating challenges for maintaining energy balance over extended periods. Traditionally, coal-fired generation has provided the flexibility needed to address these imbalances.However, as coal-fired generation is phased out, long-duration storage emerges as a promising solution to mitigate the risks of long-term imbalances in renewable-dominated power systems....
