Electrochemical energy storage systems use chemical energy to generate electricity. Fuel cells and batteries — particularly lithium-ion — are the most prevalent electrochemical energy storage technologies. The following are the pros and cons of using lithium-ion batteries for renewable energy.
An advantage of electrochemical energy storage over thermal processes is that it is an isothermal process, not dependent on the conversion efficiency of the Carnot limit. Various criteria determine the efficiency of energy storage in electrochemical batteries.
Two main categories of electrochemical-energy storage systems are low-temperature batteries, such as lead, nickel, and lithium batteries, and high-temperature batteries, such as sodium-sulfur batteries.
In addition to making it possible to continue using renewable energy sources when weather conditions are unfavorable, this also improves the reliability and stability of the power supply overall. The article covers the pros and cons of major energy storage options, including thermal, electrochemical, mechanical, magnetic and electric systems.

Electrochemical energy storage systems have the potential to make a major contribution to the implementation of sustainable energy.
Electrochemical-energy storage is less efficient than simple electrical-energy storage, which is the most efficient form of electricity storage. However, it offers an alternative without the disadvantages of direct storage of electrical energy using capacitors and coils, which is extremely efficient but costly and has very limited storage capacity.
