Electrical Energy Storage: an introduction
Introduction. Electrical energy storage systems (EESS) for electrical installations are becoming more prevalent. EESS provide storage of electrical energy so that it can be used later. The approach is not new: EESS in the form of battery-backed uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) have been used for many years.
