Battery Energy Storage
Batteries store electricity, ensuring renewable energy from sources like solar and wind is available when needed, stabilizing power grids.
How It Works
Batteries store energy chemically, converting it back into electricity when discharged. Various battery types, such as lithium-ion and flow batteries, suit different storage needs.
Benefits of Batteries
They provide backup power, smooth fluctuations in renewable energy supply, and reduce reliance on fossil fuels by enabling a more flexible and resilient grid.
Challenges & the Future
Advances in battery technology focus on increasing energy density, lowering costs, and improving recycling. Solid-state batteries and new materials may enhance efficiency and sustainability.
