Overview
Energy storage is the capture of energy produced at one time for use at a later time, allowing supply and demand to be balanced and enabling the efficient use of energy from both renewable and conventional sources. It addresses the mismatch between when energy is generated and when it is needed, a challenge made acute by the variable output of resources such as solar and wind. Storage systems are distinguished by the form in which energy is held. Electrochemical storage, principally batteries, stores energy in chemical bonds; mechanical storage includes pumped hydropower, compressed air, and flywheels; thermal storage retains energy as heat or cold, as in systems that pre-heat water or store solar thermal energy for later delivery; and chemical storage holds energy in fuels such as hydrogen. Each technology is characterised by its capacity, power, efficiency, response time, duration, and cost, which determine its suitability for applications ranging from grid stabilisation and renewable integration to backup power and transport. Significance lies in its central role in modern, low-carbon energy infrastructure and in regulating and securing electricity supply. Principal sub-areas include electrochemical batteries, mechanical and pumped-hydro storage, thermal energy storage, hydrogen and chemical storage, and the integration of storage with renewable generation and the grid.
