This article will answer your confusion. Just like we put food in the refrigerator, we can store it for days or weeks without eating it immediately or discarding it. Technologies include energy storage with molten salt and liquid air or cryogenic storage. So what exactly is energy storage? Mechanical storage.

No battery is perfect, however, so engineers keep pushing for new and improved ways to store those electrons. The gravity batteries described in this story lift giant weights in the air or up mine shafts to store excess electricity, releasing the weights later on to recover the stored energy.

High temperature heat for biomass gasification is obtained from a molten-salt system in a solar concentrating tower. One of the feasible approaches is heating sand (Olivine, also the catalyst of gasification reaction) by hot molten salt from a solar concentrator tower, using a gasifier designed as a fluidized-bed of olivine particles.

MIT professor Donald Sadoway and his team have demonstrated a long-cycle-life calcium-metal-based liquid-metal rechargeable battery for grid-scale energy storage, overcoming the problems that have precluded the use of the element: its high melting temperature, high reactivity and unfavorably high solubility in molten salts.
