Note: Battery equivalent based on natural gas energy converted terawatt hours (TWh) at 0.29 TWh per day per 1 bcfd; then, energy storage converted into power equivalent using assumed 42% efficiency rate of a natural gas peaker
plant. Battery storage capacity assumes 4-hour duration by multiplying capacity by 4. IEA utility-scale battery storage assumptions range from one to eight hours.
