DESCRIPTION:We will overview decision-making in battery energy storage syst
 ems (BESS) across innovation\, investment\, and deployment. In this work\,
  we apply three analytical lenses to BESS technology: learning curves\, de
 ployment costs\, and economic feasibility. (1) Technology roadmap modeling
  — illustrated through a 6\,000-scenario evaluation of sodium-ion versus
  lithium-ion batteries — captures both process and engineering learnings
 . (2) Site-level deployment costs are parameterized across civil\, electri
 cal\, and installation factors\, with energy density dominating system-lev
 el competitiveness. (3) Finally\, a novel cumulative present value (CPV) t
 ool assesses bankability by modeling revenue recovery against capital cost
 s under realistic operating conditions\, enabling comparison across multip
 le chemistries.\n\nBio\n\nWill Chueh is a Kimmelman Professor in the Depar
 tment of Materials Science & Engineering and Energy Science & Engineering 
 at Stanford University\, Department of Photon Science at SLAC National Acc
 elerator Laboratory\, and the Director & Senior Fellow of the Precourt Ins
 titute for Energy. He leads a group of more than thirty researchers pursui
 ng the following missions: (1) understand reactions and transport involvin
 g ions and electrons\, and (2) decarbonize various energy transformation p
 athways. He received his BS in applied physics\, and his MS and PhD in mat
 erials science from Caltech. Prior to joining Stanford in 2012\, he was a 
 Distinguished Truman Fellow at Sandia National Laboratories. Chueh has rec
 eived numerous honors\, including the David A. Shirley Award (2023)\, Frie
 drich Wilhelm Bessel Research Award (2022)\, MRS Outstanding Young Investi
 gator Award (2018)\, Volkswagen/BASF Science Award Electrochemistry (2016)
 \, Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar Award (2016)\, Sloan Research Fellowshi
 p (2016)\, NSF CAREER Award (2015)\, Solid State Ionics Young Scientist Aw
 ard (2013)\, and Caltech Demetriades-Tsafka-Kokkalis Prize in Energy (2012
 ). In 2012\, he was named as one of the “Top 35 Innovators Under the Age
  of 35” by MIT’s Technology Review. He serves on the editorial boards 
 of numerous journals including Energy & Environmental Science\, and is the
  Editor-in-Chief of Solid State Ionics.
