Energy storage technologies are key for sustainable energy solutions. Mechanical systems use inertia and gravity for energy storage. Electrochemical systems rely on high-density materials like metal hydrides. Challenges include high costs, material scarcity, and environmental impact.
Energy storage is used to facilitate the integration of renewable energy in buildings and to provide a variable load for the consumer. TESS is a reasonably commonly used for buildings and communities to when connected with the heating and cooling systems.
Three basic functions of electrical energy storage (EES) are to reduce the cost of the electricity supply by storing energy during off-peak hours, increase reliability during unplanned outages or disasters, and maintain and enhance power quality in terms of frequency and voltage.
Several investigations have considered the technical and economic aspects of storage, but there is a lack of information on their environmental impact. The review indicates the absence of knowledge space identification in the area of energy storage, which requires updating and accumulating data.

The sizing and placement of energy storage systems (ESS) are critical factors in improving grid stability and power system performance. Numerous scholarly articles highlight the importance of the ideal ESS placement and sizing for various power grid applications, such as microgrids, distribution networks, generating, and transmission [167, 168].
Energy storage technologies can be classified according to storage duration, response time, and performance objective. However, the most commonly used ESSs are divided into mechanical, chemical, electrical, and thermochemical energy storage systems according to the form of energy stored in the reservoir (Fig. 3) [, , , ].
