Introduction

Being able to capture and store energy for latter use has many benefits. Economically energy can be produced when fuel prizes are low and used when they increase. If it is a windy day electricity can be stored to be used later when there is no wind. Energy can also be stored and used as a safety function in case there is an interruption in other production units.
