Far Future, Space. Most plausible way to store short-term energy?

+0
−0

Please assume the following:

A spaceship in the far future.

Output: The ships systems have a high base demand of energy and sometimes you need extreme amounts of Energy in a very short period of time.

Input: An advanced fusion reactor is used to provide baseline-power. There are a range of 'injections' into the system, some of them sudden, extreme energy peaks, some minor and rising/falling softly.

What would be the best way to store energy and provide the necessary flexibility?

As-always: Assume future tech, I'll accept plausible handwaves, but please keep them as minor as possible.
