You cannot store power any more than you can store velocity, because it is simply a 'rate' -the rate of doing work. In order to do work you can store potential energy in, for example, the form of water held behind a dam. When the water is allowed to pass through a turbine, that turbine does work by converting this energy into electrical energy.

What is the relation between electric power used and produced?

Electric power has to be used when it is produced, it can't be stored in a reservoir, so at any time in the day the supply must be matched to the demand. The demand can of course include methods of storage such as pumped hydro schemes, or rechargeable batteries, but that is not direct storage of the electrical power.
