As countries transition away from fossil fuels to green sources of energy like wind and solar, there will be natural lulls in energy production due to weather conditions. Energy consumption also tends to peak during early evening hours , which is inconveniently right when solar energy output decreases.

Discharge mode is shown; the arrows are reversed for electrolytic/charge mode. As the fraction of electricity generation from intermittent renewable sources—such as solar or wind—grows, the ability to store large amounts of electrical energy is of increasing importance.
