According to the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), a staggering 91% of global electricity generation could be sourced from renewables by 2050 to limit global warming to 1.5°C. However, these renewable sources are inherently unpredictable, introducing volatility into energy systems. This variability underscores the critical importance of efficient energy storage systems (ESS).
