There is an increasing amount of sustainably generated electricity in the form of wind and solar power, but it is not available whenever we want it. Large-scale electricity storage facilities are therefore needed, both for short-term (day and night) and long-term (weekly or seasonal) storage. Batteries are best for short-term storage, whereas artificially produced fuels such as hydrogen are most suitable for long-term energy storage.
