Abstract
With the predicted changes in climate that could have serious implications for our current way of living, countries over the world have created ambitions to lower fossil fuel usage by replacing it with renewable energy sources. However, the electricity output of renewable energy sources like wind and solar power can vary throughout the year, season, month and day. These fluctuations bring problems for the electrical grid and its consumers. Buffering the electricity when there is overcapacity and using that buffer when output of renewable sources is low can mitigate such problems. With a wide range of energy storage techniques that differ in many ways, the question remains of which energy storage technique to use in what situation. This thesis will research this question and provide helpful insights into which energy storage technique can be used in certain situations.
