Author(s): Francesco Campaioli, Stefano Gherardini, James Q. Quach, Marco Polini, and Gian Marcello Andolina Storage of energy in quantum devices is of practical relevance for applications in quantum technologies. The topic attracts attention also of a more foundational character due to the possibility that the charging power and work extraction can benefit from quantum coherence and collective effects. This Colloquium reviews theoretical concepts and experimental implementations of energy storage in quantum batteries drawing on work in quantum thermodynamics and quantum information science. [Rev.
