Summary:An electric power grid buffer for storing electric energy by converting low energy electrochemistry waste into higher energy electrochemistry fuel and supplying electric energy to an electric power grid by discharging the higher energy electrochemistry fuel under production of low energy electrochemistry waste. In one embodiment, the electric power grid buffer stores electric energy generated by renewable energy sources, such as wind power or solar cells, and supplies an electric current to an electric power grid such that the renewable energy source is completely isolated from the electric power grid.
