Large energy storage introduction ppt

Why is energy storage important?

Energy storage is a valuable tool for balancing the grid and integrating more renewable energy. When energy demand is low and production of renewables is high, the excess energy can be stored for later use. When demand for energy or power is high and supply is low, the stored energy can be discharged.

What are the different types of energy storage technologies?

Energy storage enables electricity production at one time to be stored and used later to meet peak demand. The document then summarizes different types of energy storage technologies including batteries, mechanical storage, compressed air, pumped hydro, hydrogen, and flywheels.
