摘要

Increasing renewable energy participation in total energy supply has faced its variability challenges that affect grid variability, reliability and efficiency. Energy storage solutions enable the surplus energy to be captured, converted and reused as needed, by reducing demand variability. This chapter provides a summary of technologies used in building energy storage, including their primary types, techno-economic considerations, and environmental impact. It investigates the possible advantages and disadvantages of incorporating energy storage devices.
