Battery Storage for Environmentally Sustainable Energy

The development of affordable battery storage is increasingly being viewed as a central component of sustainability. Clean, renewable energy sources are needed to help create a sustainable society. They must replace our current reliance on more problematic sources of power such as oil, natural gas and nuclear. The difficulty with such renewable power sources is that they might not be produced at the time when most needed such as during times of peak energy demand. The creation of energy from such sources depends on environmental conditions. Wind energy is harnessed when it is windy, and solar energy creation is dependent on sunlight. Such challenges require a storage solution such as lithium-ion batteries that allow renewable energy generation to be stored until needed. Batteries offer a viable solution for storing intermittent energy production associated with Renewables. Hardware costs are reduced as supply increases, and the combination of renewable energy sources and battery storage is quickly becoming the best option going forward replacing environmentally unsustainable energy production. Battery storage option behind the grid combined with a solar package will enable the most efficient storage and sales solution.
