A battery energy storage system (BESS) is an electrochemical storage system that allows electricity to be stored as chemical energy and released when it is needed. Common types include lead-acid and lithium-ion batteries, while newer technologies include solid-state or flow batteries.
Energy storage involves converting energy from forms that are difficult to store to more conveniently or economically storable forms. Some technologies provide short-term energy storage, while others can endure for much longer. Bulk energy storage is currently dominated by hydroelectric dams, both conventional as well as pumped.
Various operating and maintenance (O&M) as well as capital cost components for energy storage systems need to be estimated in order to analyse the economics of energy storage systems for a given location.
Starting with the essential significance and historical background of ESS, it explores distinct categories of ESS and their wide-ranging uses. Chapters discuss Thermal, Mechanical, Chemical, Electrochemical, and Electrical Energy Storage Systems, along with Hybrid Energy Storage.
Electrical energy can be stored electrochemically in batteries and capacitors. Batteries are mature energy storage devices with high energy densities and high voltages.
Chemical energy storage systems are sometimes classified according to the energy they consume, e.g., as electrochemical energy storage when they consume electrical energy, and as thermochemical energy storage when they consume thermal energy.
