Like a savings account for the electric grid, energy storage neatly balances electricity supply and demand. When energy generation exceeds demand, energy storage systems can store that excess energy until electricity production drops and the energy can be deposited. . One way to help balance fluctuations in electricity supply and demand is to store electricity during periods of relatively high production and low demand, then release it back to the electric power grid during periods of lower production or higher demand. In some cases, storage may provide. . Energy storage is the capturing and holding of energy in reserve for later use. Energy storage solutions for electricity generation include pumped-hydro storage, batteries, flywheels, compressed-air energy storage, hydrogen storage and thermal energy storage components.
