From Appropedia
Energy storage is the storing of some form of energy that can be drawn upon at a later time to perform some useful operation.
The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to energy storage:

[edit] Types of energy storage
- Pumped-storage hydroelectricity
- Superconducting magnetic energy storage
- flow batteries
