(PDF) HISTORY OF THE FIRST ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEMS
Very few know that the first battery was invented 2,or that in 1970 was reached a critical point when the manufacture of batteries was about to be stopped. About
In this review, energy storage from the gigawatt pumped hydro systems to the smallest watt-hour battery are discussed, and the future directions predicted. If renewable energy, or even lower cost energy, is to become prevalent energy storage is a critical component in reducing peak power demands and the intermittent nature of solar and wind power.
The first energy storage system was invented in 1859 by the French physicist Gaston Planté . He invented the lead-acid battery, based on galvanic cells made of a lead electrode, an electrode made of lead dioxide (PbO 2 ) and an approx. 37% aqueous solution of sulfuric acid acting as an electrolyte.
The need for the storage and backup of electrical power has given rise to the use and development of energy storage devices (ESD) that can store the electrical energy produced. The most widespread and popular ESDs are batteries such as the lead-acid batteries and the lithium-ion batteries, just to name a few.
