The intermittent nature of solar and wind energy poses challenges for effective energy management; however, energy storage mitigates these issues by absorbing excess electricity during high generation periods and releasing it during low generation times.
Energy storage technologies provide primary power sources for portable devices and vehicles and are employed in electrical grids to act as backups in order to ensure a stable, steady energy supply.
At the core of battery energy storage space lies the basic principle of converting electrical power into chemical energy and, afterward, back to electric power when needed.
Energy storage systems operate on the principle of storing energy when it is available and releasing it when needed. This process involves converting energy from one form to another, storing it, and then converting it back to a usable form.

As a consequence, to guarantee a safe and stable energy supply, faster and larger energy availability in the system is needed. This survey paper aims at providing an overview of the role of energy storage systems (ESS) to ensure the energy supply in future energy grids.
Zito, Ralph. Energy Storage: A New Approach. 2nd ed., Wiley-Scrivener, 2019. Energy Storage Technologies encompass a range of systems designed to store energy for later use, playing a crucial role in ensuring a stable energy supply for both portable devices and electrical grids.
Energy storage devices can supply either primary power or secondary power. Devices such as batteries, capacitors, and fuel cells, for instance, may provide primary power, usually for portable electronics or vehicles—anything that must be used apart from the steady supply of an electrical power grid.
Decarbonizing the energy sector is essential, with the Energy Storage Systems (ESS) being of great importance in the achievement of this goal. These technologies enhance the integration of renewable sources, improving supply stability and efficiency, thus facilitating the transition to a more sustainable energy model .
Energy storage systems will be fundamental for ensuring the energy supply and the voltage power quality to customers. This survey paper offers an overview on potential energy storage solutions for addressing grid challenges following a ”system-component-system” approach.
DC connection The majority of energy storage systems are based on DC systems (e.g., batteries, supercapacitors, fuel cells). For this reason, connecting in parallel at DC level more storage technologies allows to save an AC/DC conversion stage, and thus improve the system efficiency and reduce costs.
