Solar Energy Storage
Storing solar energy for later use is known as solar energy storage. It can be done easily just by using sunlight. It uses no electricity. It just uses the natural source to operate various appliances, vehicles, and many more.
Where is Solar Energy Used?
Solar Energy is mainly used in,
- Batteries
- Cooking Appliances
- Electrical appliances
- Fuels
Examples of Solar Energy Storage
Some of the common examples of Solar Energy Storage system includes,
Solar Fuel Cell
It can be produced through,
- Solar panel electricity (Electrochemistry)
- Artificial photosynthesis (Photobiology)
- Concentrated solar thermal energy (Thermochemistry)
- Photons (Photochemically)
Solar fuels can be manufactured and stored in synthetic compounds ammonia, hydrogen, and hydrazine when there is no sunlight. They are portable or transportable and can be used over a long period.
Application of Solar Fuels
The important application of Solar fuel cell includes,
- Separating water into hydrogen and oxygen.
- For Cooking Food
- Used for the Creation of Clean and Efficient Energy.
Hybrid Solar Storage Systems
This solar storage system stores solar energy for public access. These energy storage systems store energy produced by one or more energy systems. They can be solar or wind turbines to generate energy.
Application of Hybrid Solar Storage Systems
Hybrid Solar Storage Systems are mostly used in,
- Battery
- Invertor
- Smart meter

Energy Storage
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. These storages can be of any type according to the shelf-life of energy which means some storages can store energy for a short time and some can for a long time. There are various examples of energy storage including a battery, flywheel, solar panels, etc.
