Yong Lei The development of highly-efficient energy storage and conversion systems is critical for addressing the crucial problems of climate change, limited availability of fossil fuels and environmental pollutions, and it also plays a key role in efficient utilization of sustainable and renewable energy (such as solar and wind energy).
Advanced energy conversion and storage technologies have been proposed to balance this non-uniformity and solve the existing problems 6. Through efficient integration of energy conversion and storage systems, feasible and portable devices have been developed, such as water electrolysis, fuel cells, solar cells, batteries and so on 7–14.
Achieving 100% carbon-free or renewable power systems can be facilitated by the deployment of energy storage technologies at all timescales, including short-duration, long-duration, and seasonal scales; however, most current literature focuses on cost assessments of energy storage for a given timescale or type of technology.
The majority of energy storage media produce DC power and must be coupled to the AC power network via a power conversion system (PCS). In most cases, these systems incorporate various levels of control to ensure the safe, efficient, reliable operation of the energy storage systems (ESSs). These subsystems are described in this section.
In energy conversion and storage field, CNTs are intensively investigated in laboratory, ranging from their synthesis to device fabrication. The future perspectives of energy conversion and storage devices demand optical transparency, flexibility, stretchability, mechanical wearability, and stable packaging to compete with existing markets.
