Environmental benefits are also obtained if surplus power is used to produce hydrogen but the benefits are lower. Our environmental assessment of energy storage systems is complemented by determination of CO 2 mitigation costs. The lowest CO 2 mitigation costs are achieved by electrical energy storage systems.
Renewable energy sources such as wind and solar are intermittent. They have a highly variable output, which means they can produce surplus energy, which can overload the system, and they can also produce less energy than that required. The energy storage system is regarded as the most effective method for overcoming these intermittents.
Renewable energy integration and decarbonization of world energy systems are made possible by the use of energy storage technologies. As a result, it provides significant benefits with regard to ancillary power services, quality, stability, and supply reliability.
However, energy storage has some potentially negative impacts that will fundamentally depend on the type and efficiency of the storage technology. For example, batteries use raw materials like lithium and lead that can pose serious environmental hazards if not properly disposed of or recycled.
In this paper, batteries from various aspects including design features, advantages, disadvantages, and environmental impacts are assessed. This review reaffirms that batteries are efficient, convenient, reliable and easy-to-use energy storage systems (ESSs).
Thus to account for these intermittencies and to ensure a proper balance between energy generation and demand, energy storage systems (ESSs) are regarded as the most realistic and effective choice, which has great potential to optimise energy management and control energy spillage.
