As countries trend away from fossil fuel-fired base load plants and towards renewable but such as wind and solar, there is a corresponding increase in the need for systems, as renewable alternatives to building more peaking or load following power plants. Another option is broader distribution of generating capacity, through the use of grid interties, such as the .

Compressed-air-energy storage (CAES) is a way to for later use using . At a scale, energy generated during periods of low demand can be released during periods. The first utility-scale CAES project was in the Huntorf power plant in , and is still operational as of 2024 . The Huntorf plant was initially de.

This is a list of energy storage power plants worldwide, other than pumped hydro storage. Many individual plants augment by capturing excess electrical energy during periods of low demand and storing it in other forms until needed on an . The energy is later converted back to its electrical form and returned to the grid as needed.
