Chemical energy storage in the form of biomass, coal, and gas is crucial for the current energy generation system. It will also be an essential component of the future renewable energy system. With each facility ranging in the terawatt-hours, chemical energy storage has by far the largest capacity.
The key factors for such kinds of chemical energy storage materials are as follows: Large density; Easy to store and transport; Compatible to the existing infrastructure; Easy to produce and high round-trip efficiency; Environment friendly. Different chemical energy storage materials are listed as follows. Hydrogen.
The main reasons for these results may be as follows: Firstly, technology maturity and commercial applications: Among existing energy storage technologies, electrochemical energy storage is the most widely applied . It has a higher degree of technical foundation and commercialization, which attracts more research interests and investment.
Additionally, with the large-scale development of electrochemical energy storage, all economies should prioritize the development of technologies such as recycling of end-of-life batteries, similar to Europe. Improper handling of almost all types of batteries can pose threats to the environment and public health .
Some of the chemical storage systems which are not yet commercialised can also be listed, such as hydrated salts, hydrogen peroxide and vanadium pentoxide. It is vital to note that chemical energy storage also includes both electrochemical energy storage systems and the thermochemical energy storage systems .
The publication volume of electrochemical storage has been exponentially increasing, indicating that research on electrochemical storage may reach its peak and enter a stable development phase in the near future.
