They also intend to effect the potential advancements in storage of energy by advancing energy sources. Renewable energy integration and decarbonization of world energy systems are made possible by the use of energy storage technologies.
It is of great significance to change the concept of the past in the development of distributed storage in future, that is, transforming traditional energy to new energy, to distributed power supply instead of centralized power supply. Energy storage will take an important part in the power system development in future.
In January 2022, the National Development and Reform Commission and the National Energy Administration jointly issued the Implementation Plan for the Development of New Energy Storage during the 14th Five-Year Plan Period, emphasizing the fundamental role of new energy storage technologies in a new power system.
Throughout this concise review, we examine energy storage technologies role in driving innovation in mechanical, electrical, chemical, and thermal systems with a focus on their methods, objectives, novelties, and major findings. As a result of a comprehensive analysis, this report identifies gaps and proposes strategies to address them.
As the proportion of new energy, especially wind power and solar power increases in the power system, the structural characteristics and operation control methods of the traditional power system will undergo fundamental changes, thereby forming the new energy power system .
The energy storage industry is going through a critical period of transition from the early commercial stage to development on a large scale. Whether it can thrive in the next stage depends on its economics.
