List of energy

storage power
plants

This is a list of energy storage power


plants worldwide, other than pumped
hydro storage. Many individual energy
storage plants augment electrical grids by
capturing excess electrical energy during
periods of low demand and storing it in
other forms until needed on an electrical
grid. The energy is later converted back to
its electrical form and returned to the grid
as needed. Most of the world's grid energy
storage by capacity is in the form of
pumped-storage hydroelectricity, which is
covered in List of pumped-storage
hydroelectric power stations. This article
list plants using all other forms of energy
storage.

The 150 MW Andasol solar power


station is a commercial parabolic
trough solar thermal power plant,
located in Spain. The Andasol plant
uses tanks of molten salt to store
captured solar energy so that it can
continue generating electricity when
the sun isn't shining.[1]
Another energy storage method is the
consumption of surplus or low-cost energy
(typically during night time) for conversion
into resources such as hot water, cool
water or ice, which is then used for heating
or cooling at other times when electricity
is in higher demand and at greater cost
per kilowatt hour (kWh). Such thermal
energy storage is often employed at end-
user sites such as large buildings, and also
as part of district heating, thus shifting
energy consumption to other times for
better balancing of supply and demand.

For a list of systems and forms of energy


storage see energy storage and grid
energy storage.
