The role of hydrogen energy storage technology
Hydrogen and fuel cells can be incorporated into existing and emerging energy and power systems to avoid curtailment of variable renewable sources, such as wind and solar; enable a more optimal capacity utilization of baseload nuclear, natural gas, and other hydrocarbon-based plants; provide voltage and frequency stabilization support for the electric grid; and/or provide clean, reliable distributed and backup power generation.

The role of flywheel vacuum energy storage
Flywheel energy storage (FES) works by accelerating a rotor () to a very high speed and maintaining the energy in the system as . When energy is extracted from the system, the flywheel's rotational speed is reduced as a consequence of the principle of ; adding energy to the system correspondingly results in an increase in the speed of th. In order to eradicate any energy loss due to friction, the flywheel is placed inside a vacuum containment. It is also suspended by bearings so that operation is stable. This results in the flywheel being able to continue spinning without any added power and with very little energy loss. [pdf]
How hydrogen energy storage works
Chemical storage could offer high storage performance due to the high storage densities. For example, supercritical hydrogen at 30 °C and 500 bar only has a density of 15.0 mol/L while has a hydrogen density of 49.5 mol H2/L methanol and saturated at 30 °C and 7 bar has a density of 42.1 mol H2/L dimethyl ether. Hydrogen energy storage is another form of chemical energy storage in which electrical power is converted into hydrogen. This energy can then be released again by using the gas as fuel in a combustion engine or a fuel cell. [pdf]
