This review article explores recent advancements in energy storage technologies, including supercapacitors, superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES), flywheels, lithium-ion batteries, and hybrid energy storage systems. Section 2 provides a comparative analysis of these devices, highlighting their respective features and capabilities.
The application scenarios of energy storage technologies are reviewed and investigated, and global and Chinese potential markets for energy storage applications are described. The challenges of large-scale energy storage application in power systems are presented from the aspect of technical and economic considerations.
From Tables 14 and it is apparent that the SC and SMES are convenient for small scale energy storage application. Besides, CAES is appropriate for larger scale of energy storage applications than FES. The CAES and PHES are suitable for centered energy storage due to their high energy storage capacity.
Recent advancements and research have focused on high-power storage technologies, including supercapacitors, superconducting magnetic energy storage, and flywheels, characterized by high-power density and rapid response, ideally suited for applications requiring rapid charging and discharging.
The lithium ion battery and flywheel energy storage are the most widely implemented technologies, the proportion of total installed capacity has reached up to 78%, and the lithium enterprises such as BYD, A123 System, LG Chem have deployed the most applications in this respect.
Battery, flywheel energy storage, super capacitor, and superconducting magnetic energy storage are technically feasible for use in distribution networks. With an energy density of 620 kWh/m3, Li-ion batteries appear to be highly capable technologies for enhanced energy storage implementation in the built environment.
