A review on Energy Storage Systems

Abstract

Abstract The urgent need to address global warming and the energy crisis, caused by dependence on fossil fuels, has led to enhanced research for sustainable energy sources. The adoption of renewable energy alternatives has been swift, but the intermittent nature of these sources makes consistent power production challenging. To address this, various techniques are used to store energy from renewable sources, which can then be used in a controlled manner to meet rising energy demands while reducing global CO2 emissions. This article analyzes the state of the art of energy storage technologies, focusing on their characteristics, classifications, applications, comparisons, and limitations. The study also includes recent research on new energy storage types, as well as significant advances and developments.
