(Xinhua/Yang Zhisen) NANJING, Jan. 24 (Xinhua) -- In an eastern Chinese coastal county of Rudong, a 35-story-high steel structure houses around 1,000 25-tonne gravity blocks.

Do energy storage systems cover green energy plateaus?

Energy storage systems must develop to cover green energy plateaus. We need additional capacity to store the energy generated from wind and solar power for periods when there is less wind and sun. Batteries are at the core of the recent growth in energy storage and battery prices are dropping considerably.

How does energy storage work?

Energy storage creates a buffer in the power system that can absorb any excess energy in periods when renewables produce more than is required. This stored energy is then sent back to the grid when supply is limited.

Why is energy storage important?

This stored energy is then sent back to the grid when supply is limited. It also plays an important role in times of any grid emergency, it can supply the grid with enough power in a short duration to prevent grid failures. Batteries are at the core of the recent growth in energy storage, particularly those based on lithium-ion.
