Abstract
This paper explores recent advancements in electrochemical energy storage technologies, highlighting their critical role in driving the transformation of the global energy system. As renewable energy generation rapidly increases, the need for energy storage solutions is growing correspondingly. Battery energy storage systems, known for their flexible configurations, fast response times, and high levels of control, have garnered significant attention in various sectors such as portable electronics, power grid modernization, electric transportation, and large-scale energy storage. These technologies are becoming essential tools for addressing the challenges of maintaining a stable energy supply.Lithium-ion batteries, known for their high energy density, continue to dominate the consumer electronics market. Meanwhile, sodium-ion batteries, which offer a balance of performance and are based on more widely available resources, are emerging as promising alternatives. In terms of large-scale, long-duration energy storage, flow batteries stand out due to their unique ability to independently scale power and capacity. Additionally, solid-state batteries are gaining significant attention as next-generation energy storage solutions due to their superior safety, extended lifespan, and environmental benefits. This paper reviews the operating principles, technical characteristics, current progress, and key challenges associated with these major battery technologies. Furthermore, it discusses the future directions for energy storage technology development, offering insights to support ongoing research in this evolving field.
