Description20240706 Energy storage - renewable energy - battery - 100 ms.gif
English: Animation showing renewable energy source charging energy storage device (e.g., battery) when renewable energy is available, and storage contributing to power grid even when renewable energy source is dormant
Suggested generic caption: "Energy from a source such as sunlight is converted to potential energy for storage. The stored potential energy is later converted to electricity that is added to the power grid, even when the original energy source is not available."
Suggested caption re gravity batteries: "Energy from a source such as sunlight is used to lift a mass such as water upward against the force of gravity, giving it potential energy. The stored potential energy is later converted to electricity that is added to the power grid, even when the original energy source is not available."
Technical note: frames were individually created in Powerpoint, exported to PNG files, read into GIMP to create a GIF.
