Energy use is not uniform throughout the day and year. Renewable
energy resources such as hydroelectric, wind, and solar energy,
generate different amounts of energy over time and space, and are not
always available when and where they are needed. A storage mechanism
is required to allow generated energy to be utilized effectively. This
book considers some of the important technologies for energy storage
beginning with batteries, which utilize electrochemical reactions to
store electrical energy, with applications that range from consumer
electronics to transportation and grid-scale storage. Next, the
storage of energy in electric and magnetic fields through the use of
supercapacitors and superconducting magnets, is discussed. Finally,
chemical approaches to energy storage such as hydrogen and
electrofuels are discussed.
