Energy storage mechanism
Energy storage is the capture of energy produced at one time for use at a later time to reduce imbalances between energy demand and energy production. Energy comes in multiple forms including radiation, chemical, gravitational potential, electrical. In the 20th century grid, electrical power was largely generated by burning fossil fuel. The economics of energy storage strictly depends on the reserve service requested, and several uncertainty factors affect the profitability of energy. Storage capacity is the amount of energy extracted from an energy storage device or system; usually measured in or and their multiples, it may be given in number of hours of electricity production at power plant ; when storage is of. GermanyIn 2013, the German government allocated €200M (approximately US$270M) for research, and another €50M to subsidize battery storage in residential rooftop solar panels, according to a representative of the German Energy.

Renewable energy option
Renewable energyis energy that has been derived from earth’s natural resources that are not finite or exhaustible, such as wind and sunlight. As a consumer you have several opportunities to make an impact on improving the environment through the choice of a greener energy solution.

Potential energy storage
Energy from a source such as sunlight is used to lift a mass such as water upward against the force of gravity, giving it potential energy. The stored potential energy is later converted to electricity that is added to the power grid, even when the original energy source is not available. An old and simple application is the driven by a weight, which at 1 kg and 1 m travel can store nearly 10 newton-meters [Nm], joules [J] or watt-seconds [Ws], thus 1/3600 of a watt-hour [Wh], while a typical 18650 cell can hold about 7 Wh, thus 2500 times. Gravity batteries can have different designs and structures, but all gravity batteries use the same properties of physics to generate energy.

Energy harvesting storage
There are many small-scale energy sources that generally cannot be scaled up to industrial size in terms of comparable output to industrial size solar, wind or : • Some are powered by kinetic energy (called ) generated through movement of the arm when walking.
