The future of energy storage is not about a single "winner" but a diverse portfolio of advanced technologies. . We need additional capacity to store the energy generated from wind and solar power for periods when there is less wind and sun. By storing energy from both renewable sources, such as solar and wind, and the conventional power grid, BESSes balance supply and demand, stabilizing power. . MITEI's three-year Future of Energy Storage study explored the role that energy storage can play in fighting climate change and in the global adoption of clean energy grids. It allows intermittent resources to power homes and industries at any time of day.
