Simply put, energy storage is the ability to capture energy at one time for use at a later time. Storage devices can save energy in many forms (e.g., chemical, kinetic, or thermal) and convert them back to useful forms of energy like electricity. Although almost all current energy storage capacity is in the form of pumped hydro and the

Building energy codes and appliance standards are other types of regulations that, along with other policies, have helped make energy efficiency the "first fuel" in clean energy transitions. Regulations in areas seemingly unrelated to energy, such as wildlife protection or waste management, also can affect decisions about energy, such as siting of

The U.S. energy storage market was a humble $111 million in 2013, but shot up to $441 million by the end of 2015 and is expected to grow sixfold by 2021, according to the Energy Storage Monitor

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. Due to the hourly, seasonal, and locational

Energy storage is one of the emerging technologies which can store energy and deliver it upon meeting the energy demand of the load system. Presently, there are a few notable energy storage devices such as lithium-ion (Li-ion), Lead-acid (PbSO4), flywheel and super capacitor which are commercially available in the market [ 9, 10 ].

The development of renewable energy is unquestionably a critical factor to the transformation of China''s energy structure towards a safe, low-carbon, and high efficiency modern energy system.
