Energy storage technologies may be broadly characterised by their ''specific energy'' (energy stored per unit volume or mass) and by their ''peak power'' (how fast that energy can be delivered from the device). For instance, batteries store a lot of energy, but they take a long time to charge and discharge. Capacitors can produce peak power but store only tiny …
Energy storage methods. There are many ways to store energy.
