Advanced Energy Storage Technologies and Their Applications (AESA)

Abstract

The depletion of fossil fuels, the increase of energy demands, and the concerns over climate change are the major driving forces for the development of renewable energy, such as solar, wind and wave energy. However, the intermittency of renewable energy has hindered its large-scale deployment, which, therefore, has necessitated the development of advanced energy storage technologies. The use of large-scale energy storage can effectively improve the efficiency of energy resource utilization, and increase the adoption of variable renewable resources, the energy access, and the end-use sector electrification (e.g., electrification of transport sector).
