Can high voltage substations store electricity

What is a high voltage substation?

High voltage substations are facilities in the power grid that transform, control, and distribute electricity. They step up or step down voltage for efficient transmission and safe distribution, manage switching operations, protect the grid from faults, and ensure reliable power delivery to consumers. How does a high voltage substation work?

What does an electrical substation do?

Electrical substations perform several important tasks that support the distribution of electricity across the network. Their primary role is to receive high-voltage electricity from power stations, step it down to a lower voltage using transformers, and then distribute it to various areas.
