The valuation framework is designed to account for all PSH project costs and benefits, helping to determine the economic value of the project for the owner, system, and/or society as a whole. In addition, the framework allows for cost-benefit analyses to be performed from specific perspectives of different stakeholders, such as regulators and
Hence, a complete evaluation system for EES value, which contains a direct economic value, social value, and environmental value, need to be established. In comparison with competitive power markets, the economic feasibility of EES projects in monopoly power markets, however, has been paid less attention.

The 2022 Cost and Performance Assessment analyzes storage system at additional 24- and 100-hour durations. In September 2021, DOE launched the Long-Duration Storage Shot which aims to reduce costs by 90% in storage systems that deliver over 10 hours of duration within one decade. The analysis of longer duration storage systems supports this effort.
