<p>As type seems to be used for the tags 'latent_heat',
'compressed_air'and the like, perhaps the word medium (def: <span
class="sb-0"><span class="dt "><span class="dtText"> substance
regarded as the means of transmission</span></span></span>)
would be more descriptive? I'm not sure if it would necessarily
fit for battery however and don't have any objection to type per
se<br>

<p>I think type as I use it in the proposal fits quite well.
After all it groups up devices with similar properties. This
also fits with the use of method and type in the Wikipedia
article about power storage. Method is the physical
principals used (electrochemical,thermal,....) while types
are the specific devices invented based on these principals
(like batteries, that are based on electrochemics), which
have sub-types (like lithium-ion for batteries).</p>

<p>Will it be used for both the 'method of storage' AND the
'device used to store energy'??? <br>
</p>
<p>If so, will not that be confusing - one mapper might tag the
method of storage, while a different mapper might tag the device
used to store energy for the same thing. <br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Chose one or the other .. and then use that in place of 'type'.

<p>Again .. not 'type' ... type mean what exactly?
storage method? storage device?</p>
