Summary: "Wherever energy is available but not immediately used, energy storage can be utilized. Energy storage technologies help to absorb energy and release it at a later time (or in a different place) when it is needed. Hence, energy storage makes surplus energy usable, and is, therefore, equivalent to energy sources like fossil fuels and their market competion. Conventional energy resources - crude oil, natural gas and coal, for example - share many energy storage qualities while not being renewable. They allow for a wide variety of storage methods at high energy densities, for example 40 GJ/mp3s for crude oil and coal. Considering these facts, energy storage technologies need to have either simi-lar technical characteristics or different advantages of an economic or ecologic nature. Electric mobility - may it be cars, public transportation or any other kind of vehicle - is a prime example of direct competition between a storage system and fossil fuels. The storage, i.e. the battery, is supposed to take in energy from, for ecological reasons, re-newable sources and deliver it whenever the consumer deems fit. At the same time, the storage needs to make the consumer physically independent of these energy sources. Besides a purely economic comparison of vehicles fitted with combustion and electric engines, environmental issues like air quality might cause a crucial bias toward the ener-gy storage. The cost of storage usually adds to the total energy cost. The cost for stored energy must not be significantly higher than the cost of energy supplied directly to the consumer. Prices, however, fluctuate with actual demand. Storages are economically most attractive when energy can be obtained at low cost and provided at a higher price during a peak in demand. With an increasing share of renewable energy, future energy systems will also have an increased need for balancing of supply and demand. Fluctuating renewable energy sources combined with energy storage systems are able to provide demand adapted en-ergy. This application will become the most relevant one in the next years."-- Provided by publisher.

"Wherever energy is available but not immediately used, energy storage can be utilized. Energy storage technologies help to absorb energy and release it at a later time (or in a different place) when it is needed. Hence, energy storage makes surplus energy usable, and is, therefore, equivalent to energy sources like fossil fuels and their market competion. Conventional energy resources - crude oil, natural gas and coal, for example - share many energy storage qualities while not being renewable. They allow for a wide variety of storage methods at high energy densities, for example 40 GJ/mp3s for crude oil and coal. Considering these facts, energy storage technologies need to have either simi-lar technical characteristics or different advantages of an economic or ecologic nature. Electric mobility - may it be cars, public transportation or any other kind of vehicle - is a prime example of direct competition between a storage system and fossil fuels. The storage, i.e. the battery, is supposed to take in energy from, for ecological reasons, re-newable sources and deliver it whenever the consumer deems fit. At the same time, the storage needs to make the consumer physically independent of these energy sources. Besides a purely economic comparison of vehicles fitted with combustion and electric engines, environmental issues like air quality might cause a crucial bias toward the ener-gy storage. The cost of storage usually adds to the total energy cost. The cost for stored energy must not be significantly higher than the cost of energy supplied directly to the consumer. Prices, however, fluctuate with actual demand. Storages are economically most attractive when energy can be obtained at low cost and provided at a higher price during a peak in demand. With an increasing share of renewable energy, future energy systems will also have an increased need for balancing of supply and demand. Fluctuating renewable energy sources combined with energy storage systems are able to provide demand adapted en-ergy. This application will become the most relevant one in the next years."-- Provided by publisher.
