We are transitioning from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources such as wind and solar, and the use of energy storage is becoming more widespread. And with the popularity of electric vehicles, the grid is under more and more pressure, so the demand for energy storage is growing. So what exactly is energy storage? Mechanical storage.

To connect intermittent renewable energy sources (i.e., solar and wind) with variable output to the electrical grid, grid managers require electrical energy storage systems (EES) that can accommodate large amounts of energy created at the source. Sodium-ion batteries have been discussed in the literature. Earlier post.)
