Abstract:

Advanced military energy storage equipment has become an indispensable part of modern high-tech wars. At present, various forms of energy storage technology are rapidly innovated and are widely used in many military fields. At the same time, they continue to lead the upgrade of military equipment and even change the battlefield pattern. This article focuses on military fields such as land warfare, navy warfare, air warfare, space warfare, cyberwarfare, strike, and logistics support, and is mainly dedicated to energy storage technologies such as electricity storage, thermal storage, and hydrogen storage. The planned deployment and application of international military groups on energy storage technology were analyzed and summarized. This article also looks forward to the future development trends of military energy storage and gives recommendations for our country.

Key words: energy storage, military, battery, thermal storage, hydrogen storage
