In October 2008, Xcel began testing a one-megawatt sodium-sulfur (NaS) battery ( earlier post ) to demonstrate its ability to store wind energy and move it to the electricity grid when needed. Results also indicate that this technology may be applicable for solar energy. They are able to store about 7.2 Modular and scalable in design.
