Batteries

Batteries capture surplus energy generated at specific times for later use, effectively mitigating discrepancies between energy demand and production. The batteries within the electrical system serve as energy storage devices, facilitating versatile usage across various scenarios.

EVs

Working as a common storage system, it employs energy storage to capture surplus energy generated at specific intervals, thereby addressing imbalances between energy demand and production. Electric vehicles can obtain power from a charging infrastructure, accessing electricity from external sources, or operate autonomously using their onboard batteries.

Water Batteries

It combines water reservoirs at different altitudes at different times. Power generation occurs when water leaves a higher reservoir to a lower reservoir through turbines, creating a similar effect as a battery discharging. Water pumping occurs when water is taken from a lower reservoir to a higher reservoir through pumps, creating a similar effect as a battery charging.
