Renewable energy sources (RESs) such as wind and solar are frequently hit by fluctuations due to, for example, insufficient wind or sunshine. Energy storage technologies (ESTs) mitigate the problem by storing excess energy generated and then making it accessible on demand. While there are various EST studies, the literature remains isolated and dated. The comparison of the characteristics of ESTs and their potential applications is also short. This paper fills this gap. Using selected criteria, it identifies key ESTs and provides an updated review of the literature on ESTs and their application potential to the renewable energy sector. The critical review shows a high potential application for Li-ion batteries and most fit to mitigate the fluctuation of RESs in utility grid integration sector. However, for Li-ion batteries to be fully adopted in the RESs utility grid integration, their cost needs to be reduced.

Energy storage systems (ESSs) are the technologies that have driven our society to an extent where the management of the electrical network is easily feasible. The balance in supply-demand, stability, voltage and frequency lag control, and improvement in power quality are the significant attributes that fascinate the world toward the ESS technology. However, being one of the oldest ESS, the flywheel ESS (FESS) has acquired the tendency to raise itself among others being eco-friendly and storing energy up to megajoule (MJ). Along with these, FESS also surpasses the quality of high power density, longer life cycle, higher rate of charge and discharge cycle, and greater efficiency. In this article, an overview of the FESS has been discussed concerning its background theory, structure with its associated components, characteristics, applications, cost model, control approach, stability

“…[4,5] Also battery energy storage is well-known for medium power capacities and short response times and a short lifetime but high efficiencies of up to 85%, depending on the type of battery. [6] Therefore, these short-term energy storage methods are a good option for short-term energy compensation. [7] A choice for medium-term energy storage is the compressed air energy storage (CAES), which uses excess energy to compress air and stores it in caverns afterward.…”

The production of chemical energy carriers utilizing electrical energy from renewable sources is essential for the future energy system. A motored piston engine may be used as a reactor to convert mechanical to chemical energy by the pyrolysis of methane and ethane; this is analyzed here. The piston engine is modeled as a compression–expansion cycle with detailed chemical kinetics. The main products are hydrogen and high‐energy hydrocarbons such as acetylene, ethylene, and benzene. To reach the required high temperatures for conversion after compression, the educt is diluted with argon. The influence of the operating conditions (temperature, pressure, dilution) on the product gas composition, the stored exergy, and the ratio of exergy gain to work input (efficiency) is investigated. A conversion of >80% is predicted for an argon dilution of 93 mol% at inlet temperatures of 573 K (methane) and 473 K (ethane), respectively. A storage power of 7.5 kW (methane) and 6 kW (ethane) for a 400 ccm four‐stroke single‐cylinder is predicted with an efficiency of 75% (methane) and 70% (ethane), respectively. Conditions are identified, where high yields of the target species are achieved, and soot formation can be avoided.
