Device to store power in Megawatts?

  Yeah, clouds 😁
  
  By the way, its not power that is stored, but energy. And i read, the world's largest capacitor bank can store 50 megajules of energy. That means, it can provide 50 MW for one second, 25 MW for two seconds and so on.

  In addition to the above reply, there are limitations in storage of electrical energy. You cannot store very large quantity of electrical energy. That's the reason why the electrical transmission, distribution and load determination plays a very crucial role... If it becomes feasible to store very large quantities of electrical energies (with lesser losses & cost) then it would be a great boon in power distribution and load management..😎

  No actual electrical power can be stored by devices present today
  
  A large capacitor can store but the losses will also be in mega scale

  capacitor store charges....... in wat form ??? as we knw inductor stores charges in kinetic form 😀

  Capacitor stores it as potential energy
  
  PS kindly refer some books before posting these are real basics

  ya very simple basics 😛
