Batteries and/or supercapacitors are necessary for power supply at night. Energy storage is also necessary for cloudy or snowy days . In addition to mechanical energy, a temperature difference is also a very rich source of energy; therefore, often considered a viable option for the development of EH systems.
4.1. Energy storage 4.1.1. Renewable energy integration (solar) The intermittent nature of renewable energy sources like solar poses significant challenges to grid stability. With their exceptional power density and rapid charge-discharge capabilities, supercapacitors offer a promising solution to address these issues.
Abeywardana et al. implemented a standalone supercapacitor energy storage system for a solar panel and wireless sensor network (WSN) . Two parallel supercapacitor banks, one for discharging and one for charging, ensure a steady power supply to the sensor network by smoothing out fluctuations from the solar panel.
