The 150 MW Andasol solar power station is a commercial parabolic trough solar thermal power plant, located in Spain. The Andasol plant uses tanks of molten salt to store captured solar energy so that it can continue generating electricity when the sun is not shining. .
This is a list of energy storage power plants worldwide, other than pumped hydro storage. Many individual plants augment by capturing excess electrical energy during periods of low. .

[pdf] A key feature of the Capella Solar project is the integration of a 3 MW/1.9 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS). This technology enhances grid stability and ensures a consistent power supply, addressing the intermittency challenges of renewable energy.
[pdf] South Korea’s trade ministry announced Thursday it will invite bids from private companies to build and operate a large energy storage system (ESS) totaling 540 megawatts (MW) — enough to power about 1 million apartments for an hour.
