Energy Storage: From Fundamental Principles to Industrial
The increasing global energy demand and the transition toward sustainable energy systems have highlighted the importance of energy storage technologies by ensuring efficiency,
Mechanical energy storage The mechanical ESSs store surplus energy in the form of mechanical energy during off-peak, either as kinetic, potential, or pressurized gas, which is then transformed into electrical energy during peak times. The main types of mechanical ESSs are PHS, CAES, and FES “flywheel energy storage”.
Decarbonizing the energy sector is essential, with the Energy Storage Systems (ESS) being of great importance in the achievement of this goal. These technologies enhance the integration of renewable sources, improving supply stability and efficiency, thus facilitating the transition to a more sustainable energy model .
The diversity of energy storage systems, particularly in the domains of CES and TES, reflects the range of technological strategies being pursued to address the intermittency and decarbonization challenges of modern energy systems.
The ability to integrate the capabilities of storage technologies to the specific requirements of each industrial process is one of the main challenges of energy storage, with the selection of the optimal storage system depending on the needs of the industrial process.
