Green Energy Storage Systems are crucial for storing renewable energy and delivering it at scale to cities, regions, and countries. While lithium-ion batteries have been the most prevalent media for these systems, they have limited shelf-life and raise safety and environmental concerns.
Engineers are now exploring superior battery storage options and alternative long-duration energy storage solutions, such as flow batteries, compressed air, superconducting magnets, and ultra-capacitors. It’s only a matter of time before one or more of these solutions give lithium-ion a run for its money in renewable energy storage.
