Driven by global concerns about the climate and the environment, the world is opting for renewable energy sources (RESs), such as wind and solar. However, RESs suffer from the discredit of intermittency, for which energy storage systems (ESSs) are gaining popularity worldwide. Surplus energy obtained from RESs can be stored in …
Basically, there are three crucial origin points of energy (I) Nuclear energy, (ii) Fossil fuel energy, and (iii) Renewable energy.High energy density along with affordable pricing contributed fossil fuels in becoming the most widely used energy source [1], [2], leading to a global shortage of this energy source and also on account of its adverse …
