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.

Any must match electricity production to consumption, both of which vary significantly over time. Energy derived from and varies with the weather on time scales ranging from less than a second to weeks or longer. is less flexible than , meaning it cannot easily match the variations in demand. Thus, without storage presents special challenges to .

Do data centers use lead-acid batteries?Historically, most data centers depend on lead-acid batteries to power their UPS systems..
Which battery chemistry is best for a data center?The lead-acid battery was the first chemistry used and remains popular today, but alternative battery chemistries such as lithium-ion and nickel-zinc offer compelling value propositions driving many data center end users and OEMs to switch to a new battery chemistry..
Are NiZn batteries a good choice for data center backup?As rack-level compute density rises, so do the requirements for backup power in smaller, safer footprints. With their high power density, longer lifespan, sustainability and greater reliability, NiZn batteries are the ideal choice for backing up the increasing data center loads.
