Energy storage plays a crucial role in our transition from fossil fuels to clean energy. Renewable energy sources, like solar and wind, are inherently intermittent—they rely on the sun shining and the wind blowing. Moreover, advanced energy storage technologies enable us to store excess energy generated during periods of high production and release it during periods of high demand. This not only maximizes the efficiency and utilization of renewable and clean energy sources but also helps to reduce energy costs by moving from fossil fuels to low-cost supplies. By investing in robust energy storage systems, we can significantly cut down on carbon emissions and enhance the overall sustainability of our energy infrastructure.

Batteries are a common way of storing electricity, and they are mature technologies being adopted in different industries. There are other emerging energy storage technologies that provide the benefits of batteries but are safer, at lower costs, and with less environmental impacts. Heat Storage is one of these emerging technologies that has a winning horoscope. The output of such storage systems could be hot air, hot water, steam, electricity, or a combination of them based on the demands.
