Energy storage systems are primarily utilized to facilitate the storage of energy generated from renewable sources for later use. This capability is essential because renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind, often produce energy intermittently; they generate electricity only when the sun is shining or the wind is blowing. By storing this energy in batteries or other storage systems, it can be made available during periods of low generation or high demand, thereby ensuring a reliable energy supply.

This stored energy helps to bridge the gap between energy production and consumption, allowing for a more flexible and efficient energy system. The ability to store excess energy during peak production times and discharge it when needed enhances the overall integration of renewable energy sources into the grid, supporting efforts to transition to cleaner energy systems and reducing reliance on fossil fuels.
