<blockquote>'The energy storage market is in its infancy, and it will be interesting to watch technology developers race to come up with reliable and affordable options as well as utilities cautiously decide whether or not grid storage will be a good fit. To help make sense of this new sector, the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) just released a report that lays out technology options, benefits, performance and cost of energy storage and how it plays a role in everything from managing the electric grid to managing home energy use.'
