Solar energy storage

Solar energy storage encompasses various methods and technologies used to store energy generated from solar power for later use. This is essential due to the intermittent nature of solar energy, which is only available when the sun is shining, and includes solutions like batteries, thermal storage, pumped hydro storage, compressed air energy storage, flywheels, and hydrogen storage. These technologies are crucial for balancing supply and demand, ensuring a stable and reliable energy supply from solar power, and are particularly beneficial for renewable energy systems and grid stability.
