The future of energy storage is full of potential, with technological advancements making it faster and more efficient. Investing in research and development for better energy storage technologies is essential to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels, reduce emissions, and create a more resilient energy system.
Energy can also be stored by making fuels such as hydrogen, which can be burned when energy is most needed. Pumped hydroelectricity, the most common form of large-scale energy storage, uses excess energy to pump water uphill, then releases the water later to turn a turbine and make electricity.
