Thermal energy storage: The revival of a 200-year-old idea. A decade ago, we started working on a low-cost, large-scale solution that turns excess electricity into heat: Electrical Thermal Energy Storage (ETES). It is based on similar ideas by the Swedish American John Ericsson all the way back in the 1850s.

DOE ExplainsBatteries. Batteries and similar devices accept, store, and release electricity on demand. Batteries use chemistry, in the form of chemical potential, to store energy, just like many other everyday energy sources. For example, logs and oxygen both store energy in their chemical bonds until burning converts some of that chemical

These alloys have a higher energy density than pure silicon, which allows for the storage of more energy in a smaller volume. Researchers have demon-strated that silicon-based alloys can have an energy density of up to 2 Wh/L, which is higher than that of conventional silicon-based energy-storage devices.
