Solar batteries present an emerging class of devices which enable simultaneous energy conversion and energy storage in one single device. This high level of integration enables new energy storage concepts ranging from short-term solar energy buffers to light-enhanced batteries, thus opening up exciting vistas for decentralized energy storage.
Recent technological advances make solar photovoltaic energy generation and storage sustainable. The intermittent nature of solar energy limits its use, making energy storage systems are the best alternative for power generation. Energy storage system choice depends on electricity producing technology.
