Abstract

This chapter provides an overview on classical and innovative storage solutions and systems. The historical context and today's motivation for the development and application of energy storage are presented, together with methods and definitions for quantitative and qualitative comparison of different energy storage means. An energy-efficiency-based description method called The Theory of Ragone Plots is included.
From the classical pumped storage and its recent evolution as flexible speed-variable pump–turbines to the most recent high-power and high-energy density batteries coupled to smart grid configurations, the chapter will present the main characteristics and properties of each components. In addition, compressed-air technologies, flywheels, as well electrical magnetic and capacitive storage components are introduced. For large-capacity and so-called seasonal storage, the hydrogen storage principle is described.
Finally, system arrangements and applications are described as storage as a grid component, storage for renewable energies, hybrid power plants, or uninterruptible power sources.
Examples of recent realizations of large-scale storage plants complete the chapter.
Additional information and supplementary exercises for this chapter are available online.
