Lead-acid (LA) batteries. LA batteries are the most popular and oldest electrochemical energy storage device (invented in 1859). It is made up of two electrodes (a metallic sponge lead anode and a lead dioxide as a cathode, as shown in Fig. 34) immersed in an electrolyte made up of 37% sulphuric acid and 63% water.
That said, as wind and solar get cheaper over time, that can reduce the value storage derives from lowering renewable energy curtailment and avoiding wind and solar capacity investments. Given the long-term cost declines projected for wind and solar, I think this is an important consideration for storage technology developers."

Advantages: Offshore wind speeds tend to be faster than on land.1 Small increases in wind speed yield large increases in energy production: a turbine in a 15-mph wind can generate twice as much energy as a turbine in a 12-mph wind. Faster wind speeds offshore mean much more energy can be generated. Offshore wind speeds tend to be steadier than on …
