Energy Storage

Abstract

Most of the highly visible applications of advanced energy storage technologies are for relatively small applications, such as in portable computers or implanted medical devices, where the paramount issue is the amount of energy stored per unit weight or volume, and cost is not always of prime importance. Such energy storage components and systems have occupied much of the attention in this text, especially the later chapters related to electrochemical cells and systems.
