These classifications lead to the division of energy storage into five main types: i) mechanical energy storage, ii) chemical energy storage, iii) electrochemical energy storage, iv)
Based on the operating temperature of the energy storage material in relation to the ambient temperature, TES systems are divided into two types: low-temperature energy storage (LTES) systems and high-temperature energy storage (HTES) systems. Aquiferous low-temperature thermoelectric storage (ALTES) and cryogenic energy storage make up LTES.
Specific storage solutions might be chosen based on the application's performance needs. For large-scale energy storage applications, pumped-hydro and thermal energy storage systems are ideal, whereas battery energy storage systems are highly recommended for high power and energy requirements.
Zakeri and Syri also report that the most cost-efficient energy storage systems are pumped hydro and compressed air energy systems for bulk energy storage, and flywheels for power quality and frequency regulation applications.
For example, some reviews focus only on energy storage types for a given application such as those for utility applications. Other reviews focus only on electrical energy storage systems without reporting thermal energy storage types or hydrogen energy systems and vice versa.
