Rapid social development and economic growth have been achieved by utilizing fossil fuel-based energy sources. However, fossil fuels are not sustainable, causing numerous environmental problems. Many researchers have put a lot of effort into realizing new ideas on how to develop renewable energy resources, such as wind, water, or sun, in the most efficient way, without incurrence of further ecological catastrophes. Nevertheless, since most renewable energy sources are intermittent, an Energy Sto
