An Energy Storage System, or ESS, is a system designed to capture electrical energy and store it for later use. . Electrical energy is a form of energy that cannot be stored directly, but has to be transformed into other forms, such as chemical, thermal, mechanical or potential energy; these forms of energy can then be converted back into electrical energy when needed.
