The integrated system achieved an overall solar energy conversion and storage efficiency of 14.5%. Later on, the same group used DC-DC converter to elevate the low-voltage PV voltage to over 300 V and charged the high-voltage NiMH battery pack, resulting in an integrated system with a high solar to battery energy storage efficiency.
However, the intermittent nature of solar energy results in a high dependence on weather conditions of solar cells. Integrated solar cell-energy storage systems that integrate solar cells and energy storage devices may solve this problem by storing the generated electricity and managing the energy output.

The simplest way to integrate the energy conversion and storage units together is to connect them by wires. [21, 23] For example, Gibson and Kelly reported a combination of iron phosphate type Li-ion battery and a thin amorphous Si solar cell. The integrated system achieved an overall solar energy conversion and storage efficiency of 14.5%.
In recent years, many types of integrated system with different photovoltaic cell units (i.e. silicon based solar cell, 21 organic solar cells, 22 PSCs 23) and energy storage units (i.e. supercapacitors, 24 LIBs, [21, 23] nickel metal hydride batteries ) have been developed to realize the in situ storage of solar energy.
