Over the past decade, global installed capacity of solar photovoltaic (PV) has dramatically increased as part of a shift from fossil fuels towards reliable, clean, efficient and sustainable fuels (Kousksou et al., 2014, Santoyo-Castelazo and Azapagic, 2014).PV technology integrated with energy storage is necessary to store excess PV power generated for later use
Sometimes two is better than one. Coupling solar energy and storage technologies is one such case. The reason: Solar energy is not always produced at the time energy is needed most. Peak power usage often occurs on summer afternoons and evenings, when solar energy generation is falling. Temperatures can be hottest during these times, and people

Therefore, it is significant to investigate the integration of various electrical energy storage (EES) technologies with photovoltaic (PV) systems for effective power supply to buildings. Some review papers relating to EES technologies have been published focusing on parametric analyses and application studies.
Existing compressed air energy storage systems often use the released air as part of a natural gas power cycle to produce electricity. Solar power can be used to create new fuels that can be combusted (burned) or consumed to provide energy, effectively storing the solar energy in the chemical bonds.
Storage helps solar contribute to the electricity supply even when the sun isn't shining. It can also help smooth out variations in how solar energy flows on the grid. These variations are attributable to changes in the amount of sunlight that shines onto photovoltaic (PV) panels or concentrating solar-thermal power (CSP) systems.
