Energy Storage Takes a Big Leap: Delinking Production and Consumption
The invention of agriculture some 10,000 years ago brought with it a quantum leap in human thought. It freed the population from subsistence activities and allowed individuals to specialize in particular tasks. It formed the basis for specialized division of labour and the development of organizations. The most important role in this equation was that of granary. The ability to stock food, and delink supply and demand led to an agricultural revolution and gave birth to civilization. Similarly, the need to store energy efficiently is no less than the need to store food and knowledge. The prosperity of a country is measured not only by its Gross Domestic Product (GDP), but also by its per capita energy consumption. For humans to achieve the zenith of development and advancement, while simultaneously preserving the environment for future generations, it is quintessential to connect renewable power production with advanced energy storage systems. Vijay S in this article captures the key energy storage technologies as they exist now.
