Battery storage for wind/solar has advanced: global capacity ~40 GW in 2025, with lithium-ion dominant (e.g., XX% efficiency, costs ~$150/kWh). Systems like Moss Landing (3 GWh) store excess renewable energy for hours, enabling grid stability.

Limitations: Best for short-duration (4-8 hrs); long-term (days/weeks) needs alternatives like pumped hydro. High upfront costs, material scarcity (lithium), and cycle degradation persist. Full renewable integration requires diverse tech.
