READ MOREThe storing of electricity typically occurs in chemical (e.g., lead acid batteries or lithium-ion batteries, to name just two of the best known) or mechanical means (e.g., pumped hydro storage). Thermal energy storage systems can be as simple as hot-water tanks, but more advanced technologies can store energy more densely (e.g., molten salts

READ MOREThe World Bank Group (WBG) has committed $1 billion for a program to accelerate investments in battery storage for electric power systems in low and middle-income countries. This investment is intended to increase developing countries'' use of wind and solar power, and improve grid reliability, stability and power quality, while reducing
READ MORE"The report focuses on a persistent problem facing renewable energy: how to store it. Storing fossil fuels like coal or oil until it''s time to use them isn''t a problem, but storage systems for solar and wind energy are still being developed that would let them be used long after the sun stops shining or the wind stops blowing," says Asher Klein for NBC10
