Engineering Energy Storage, 2nd Edition, co-authored by Jacob Joseph Lamb and Odne Stokke Burheim, provides an analytical reference on energy storage technologies and system design. Structured for undergraduate students, postgraduate students, professional engineers, R&D personnel, and industrial personnel working on energy storage systems, this 300-page volume establishes essential principles for assessing modern storage capabilities.

The thematic scope encompasses mechanical, thermal, thermomechanical, and electrochemical energy storage technologies across dedicated engineering modules. Furthermore, the volume details hydrogen energy storage, water electrolysis technologies, and fuel cells, giving technical readers focused documentation on chemical energy carriers, gas production methods, and conversion devices.

To connect physical principles with technical field applications, the text incorporates numerical examples at the chapter level together with applied industry problems and their solutions. These structured exercises assist both academic learners and industrial specialists in evaluating operational metrics, performance parameters, and system configurations across active energy projects.
