1) Battery Storage. One of the most common and effective ways to store solar energy is through batteries. Batteries store excess energy generated during sunny periods for use during cloudy days or at night. Lithium-ion batteries, in particular, have gained prominence due to their high energy density and long lifespan.
There are two ways that the batteries from an electric car can be used in energy storage. Firstly, through a vehicle-to-grid (V2G) system, where electric vehicles can be used as energy storage batteries, saving up energy to send back into the grid at peak times. Secondly, at the end of their first life powering the electric car, lithium-ion
