| Using two huge salt caverns in North Germany it is planned to store enough electricity to serve 100,000 households for one day. The method is related to other batteries insofar that one cavern plays the role of the positive and the other of the negative terminal using electrolytic liquids. Once realized it solves the major problem of storage for the electricity generation by wind and sun. |
