Energy storage has a part to play in redressing the balance between power demand and power supply at a given point in time. Here are some useful links on recent developments.
The supply of energy is not constant and rarely in synchronisation with the demand for power from consumers. In addition, electricity is inherently difficult to store effectively. This website provides insights as to how secondary storage of energy is essential to increase generation capacity efficiency and to allow more substantial use of renewable energy sources that only provide energy intermittently.
