Energy storage technologies for electric applications

Integration of renewable sources in electrical networks has increased dramatically in recent years. However, the power supplied by renewable energy sources is not as secure and easy to adjust to changes in demand, as the power supplied by traditional power systems. As a result, storage devices are also integrated into the electrical network in order to ensure reliability and quality in the performance of the power system. This paper presents the current state of development of various storage technologies proposed for use in electric power systems. Thus, characteristic expressions, specific and comparative data (in technical and economic terms) are shown.
