Where do you store solar energy?

China leads the world in terms of renewable energy resources like solar power. And not just by a small margin either, making over twice as much solar power as the next highest country, the USA. Where do you store any excess solar energy for use when the sun isn't shining? Answer: in ridiculously big batteries.

How much does an energy storage system weigh?

All in, the system weighs about 55 tons (50 tonnes) To put it into simple terms, at 1,500 volts DC, it could theoretically power an average US home at 1 kW continuously for about 640 hours – a few hours shy of 27 days. Not that this energy storage system is designed for such a thing.
