Rechargeable batteries for grid-scale energy storage
Grid-scale energy storage is essentially a large-scale battery for the electrical power grid. It''s a technology that stores excess energy produced during times of low demand or high renewable energy generation (like sunny days or windy nights) and releases it back into the grid when demand is high, or renewable energy production is low.
