Özet
Building- and residential-scale energy systems are becoming increasingly complex due to the growing use of renewable energy sources, variable generation profiles, and uncertainties in user demand. This study comprehensively examines the role of electrical, thermal, and hydrogen-based energy storage technologies in building-scale hybrid energy systems and evaluates these systems alongside energy management strategies. In this context, lithium-ion batteries, supercapacitors, flywheel systems, thermal energy storage solutions, and hydrogen-/fuel cell-based architectures are discussed in terms of their technical characteristics, intended uses, limitations, and complementary aspects. The reviewed studies show that individual storage technologies remain limited in their ability to meet all operational requirements, whereas hybrid storage architectures offer significant advantages in terms of power quality, energy flexibility, energy storage system lifetime, renewable energy utilization, and long-duration energy supply security. Furthermore, energy management systems are shown to be critical not only for cost minimization but also for user comfort, grid interaction, forecasting accuracy, uncertainty management, and the coordination of storage units operating at different timescales. Consequently, achieving high efficiency, low-carbon operation, and energy autonomy in building- and residential-scale systems requires the integrated design of multilayered hybrid storage approaches that are supported by intelligent energy management.
