Exploiting renewable energy sources makes sense on many levels: first as a response to the world’s reliance on fossil fuels and to reduce climate-changing emissions. However, the natural variability of some renewable sources such as wind and solar creates substantial challenges for conventional electricity grids. It is here that energy storage promises to significantly increase the stable, reliable penetration of renewables into the grid, and perhaps in the long term, make grid disconnection a viable alternative for many users.
