Storage helps solar contribute to the electricity supply even when the sun isn’t shining. It can also help smooth out variations in how solar energy flows on the grid. These variations are attributable to changes in the amount of sunlight that shines onto photovoltaic (PV) panels or concentrating solar-thermal power (CSP) systems.
Douvi et al. reviewed technologies for storing solar energy by utilizing phase change materials to produce domestic hot water. Researchers have explored various PCMs with melting temperatures between 40 and 80 °C, including paraffins, fatty acids, salt hydrates, and alcohols. 2.5.1.5. Cavern thermal energy storage
Existing compressed air energy storage systems often use the released air as part of a natural gas power cycle to produce electricity. Solar power can be used to create new fuels that can be combusted (burned) or consumed to provide energy, effectively storing the solar energy in the chemical bonds.
Recent technological progress is explored, including high-performance lithium-ion batteries, scalable flow batteries, and innovative thermal storage solutions, alongside emerging trends such as hybrid energy storage systems (HES) and advanced materials like graphene and solid electrolytes.
