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
Energy efficiency for energy storage systems is defined as the ratio between energy delivery and input. The long life cycle of electrochemical capacitors is difficult to measure directly.
