Because energy is only collected while the sun is shining, and if you want energy in the evening, or on overcast days, it needs to be stored for later use.

because the solar energy will only be available through the time when the solar light is out (sun). at night time you will need to use what you have collected in the storage. Hense, this is why you need storage.

because the solar energy can only be used for a certain amount of time, and there are times at night or during periods of extended bad weather that it might run out so a back up plan would be needed.
