Thermal Energy Storage Technologies
Monday, 06 December 2021
One of the greatest barriers to the green energy transition is storing surplus power generation from renewables. Many technologies are capable of this, and many others are coming into the market as well. In the figure below is possible to have an overview of the whole spectrum of storage technologies. Figure 1: Energy Storage Technologies (source) A type of technology that has not been already exploited much consists of thermal energy storage. The plants that go under that category have very high energy and power capacities, allowing them to contribute significantly to a cleaner electricity mix. In fact, due to the increasing need of storing excess electricity from renewable sources, scalable and high efficient solutions have a big potential in the future. Thermal energy storage can store energy in form of heat thanks to an electricity-to-heat system, like a heat pump, for periods of
