Introduction. Grid-scale battery energy storage ("storage") contributes to a cost-efficient decarbonization process provided that it charges from carbon-free and low-cost renewable sources, such as wind or solar, and discharges to displace dirty and expensive fossil-fuel generation to meet electricity demand.

A fuel cell is a galvanic cell that converts the chemical reaction energy of a continuously supplied fuel and an oxidizing agent into electrical energy. A fuel cell is not an energy storage device but a converter. The energy is supplied in a chemically bound form with the fuel. The energy efficiency of a fuel cell is generally between 40% and

When used as an energy storage device, the fuel cell is combined with a fuel generation device, commonly an electrolyzer, to create a Regenerative Fuel Cell (RFC) system, which can convert electrical energy to a storable fuel and then use this fuel in a fuel cell reaction to provide electricity when needed. Most common types of RFCs
