Synopsis

The energy sector in the world is undergoing great changes and energy transformation is the key point of the technical, economic and political agenda of all countries of the world. In this study, various technologies such as hydroelectric, wind, solar, biomass, geothermal and wave energy are discussed by examining renewable energy sources. In addition, energy storage systems are also discussed, and electromagnetic, mechanical and electrochemical storage technologies are introduced. The use of these technologies is important in meeting future energy needs while protecting the environment, society, economy, and the welfare of future populations. However, the high costs of energy storage technologies make them uneconomical under current market conditions. This study provides a brief informative summary of renewable energy sources and energy storage systems, and aims to serve as a resource for those who wish to conduct research in this field.
