Energy Storage: An Overview of Existing Energy Storage Technologies
As the modern society is gradually switching from the traditional fossil fuels to renewable energy, there is a need for an entirely new type of energy storage to complement this new way of energy production. These innovations are being and going to be used to solve the challenge of intermittent energy output that is typical of renewable energy. Usually, the period of maximum energy production is not in sync with the period of maximum energy consumption, thus creating a gap between the two peaks that renders the energy production suboptimal. The new energy storage technologies will bridge this gap and make renewable energy be much more accessible to the society, and therefore will boost it substantially in the process of replacing fossil fuels as the primary source of energy. This thesis gives an overview of the existing energy storage technologies, as well as the ones that are being under research and show promising features. It mainly focuses on the categories of mechanical energy storage, thermal energy storage and electrochemical energy storage.
