Similar to the human desire of a long and healthy life, the longevity of our energy supply is a critical attribute for the sustainability of our society. Longevity, in this context, refers to both the sustainability of the energy system in terms of emissions and resource use as well as the lifetime of the devices that are used within the system. Both characteristics are captured by a “cradle-to-grave” lifecycle assessment of the energy system. Regardless of the choice of technology, a long lifetime of the devices used for energy storage and conversion is absolutely essential in order to minimize the impact of the energy system on the environment.

与人类对长寿和健康生活的渴望类似，我们能源供应的寿命是我们社会可持续性的关键属性。在这种情况下，寿命是指能源系统在排放和资源使用方面的可持续性以及系统内使用的设备的寿命。这两个特点都是通过对能源系统进行“从摇篮到坟墓”的生命周期评估来捕捉的。无论选择哪种技术，用于能量存储和转换的设备的长寿命绝对至关重要，以便最大限度地减少能源系统对环境的影响。
