Energy storage can be defined as the process in which we store the energy that was produced all at once. This process helps in maintaining the balance of the supply and demand of energy. Energy storage can also be defined as the process of transforming energy that is difficult to store into a form that can be kept affordably for later use.
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.
Energy storage is the capturing and holding of energy in reserve for later use. Energy storage solutions for electricity generation include pumped-hydro storage, batteries, flywheels, compressed-air energy storage, hydrogen
Pumped-storage hydroelectric dams, rechargeable batteries, thermal storage, such as molten salts, which can store and release large amounts of heat energy efficiently, compressed air energy storage, flywheels, cryogenic systems, and superconducting magnetic coils are all examples of storage that produce electricity.
This energy storage system makes use of the pressure differential between the seafloor and the ocean surface. In the new design, the pumped storage power plant turbine will be integrated with a storage tank located on the seabed at a depth of around 400–800 m. The way it works is: the turbine is equipped with a valve, and whenever the valve
Mechanical energy storage harnesses motion or gravity to store electricity. If the sun isn''t shining or the wind isn''t blowing, how do we access power from renewable sources? The key is to store energy produced when renewable generation capacity is high, so we can use it later when we need it.

For energy storage technologies to be used more widely by commercial and residential consumers, research should focus on making them more scalable and affordable. Energy storage is a crucial component of the global energy system, necessary for maintaining energy security and enabling a steadfast supply of energy.
Hydropower, a mechanical energy storage method, is the most widely adopted mechanical energy storage, and has been in use for centuries. Large hydropower dams have been energy storage sites for more than one hundred years.
It is important to compare the capacity, storage and discharge times, maximum number of cycles, energy density, and efficiency of each type of energy storage system while choosing for implementation of these technologies. SHS and LHS have the lowest energy storage capacities, while PHES has the largest.
