How does chemical energy storage work?

Chemical energy storage can add power into the grid and also store excess power from the grid for later use. Depending on how it is stored, it can be kept over long periods and is not seasonally dependent like pumped hydro. Many chemicals used for energy storage, like hydrogen, can decarbonize industry and transportation.

Why are stationary battery energy storage systems important?

The growing popularity of electric vehicles requires greater energy and power requirements—including extreme-fast charge capabilities —from the batteries that drive them. In addition, stationary battery energy storage systems are critical to ensuring that power from renewable energy sources is available when and where it is needed.

What are some examples of storing energy in chemical bonds?

Fossil fuels are one of the most familiar examples of storing energy in chemical bonds, like those in petroleum, coal, and natural gas. Energy is released when the bonds in these compounds are broken. Other examples include biomass like wood, gases such as hydrogen and methane, and batteries.
