In a way it can be. If a capacitor is connected to a battery, it will charge to the battery voltage. Then the capacitor can be discharged into a circuit to do work. But the capacitor doesn't store electrons, it stores an electrical field in the dielectric. If you mean storing the flowing electrons in a conductor, then they can't be stored except in a magnetic containment field such as in a cyclotron. A rechargable battery doesn't store electrons either, it stores energy in a chemical form which is converted to an electrical form when the battery is connected to a circuit.

What is the main cause of power cuts?
electricity is neither available nor required in electric form. It also cannot be stored in electric form. so electric generation should be equal to consumption at every instant. if generation is less than consumption some areas will experiences powercut.
What if electricity has not been invented?
Electricity was not invented it was discovered. Electricity is a natural part of nature.....look at lightning, that is electricity.
How do you spell the sound of electricity?

Is electricity boon or curse?
electricity is a boon to us. Now-a-days the things we do is almost with the help of electricity
When electricity sis not moving but stored it is called?
Stored electricity? It's a form of potential energy I guess but it's still called electricity
Can electricity be stored from lightnings?
no
Can electricity be stored temporarily?
A capacitor will store electricity temporarily.
What do you call the electricity that is stored?
capacitance
Can tidal energy be stored?
Yes it can be stored but if you have massive ammounts going into the object that's holding the energy then it can only hold for a short ammount of time
Can clectricity be stored?
Battery is the storage device for electricity
What energy store in batteries?
electricity is stored in batteries
Why is the electricity stored inside a battery called potential energy?
The energy (not exactly electricity) stored in a battery is stored in the form of chemical energy. Chemical energy is a type of potential energy, since it depends on the forces between atoms.
What type of electricity can be stored on an insulator?
Insulators are very good at holding static electricity. I hope this helped!
What are the characteristics of inventory planning?
electricity and water should be stored
Is nuclear energy stored?
No, it is used when produced (ie in electricity)
What is the name given to electricity at rest?
i think its STORED ENERGY.
