Energy storage involves the capture of energy for use at a later time, encompassing methods such as batteries, capacitors, and thermal storage systems. This capacity allows for balancing supply and demand,
The kinds of thermal energy storage can be divided into three separate categories: sensible heat, latent heat, and thermo-chemical heat storage. Each of these has different advantages and disadvantages that determine their applications. Sensible heat storage (SHS) is the most straightforward method.
Thermal energy storage can be usefully applied in solar thermal power plants, or in industrial processes, such as metallurgical transformations. It transfers heat to storage media during the charging period and releases it at a later stage during the discharging step.
Other sources of thermal energy for storage include heat or cold produced with heat pumps from off-peak, lower cost electric power, a practice called peak shaving; heat from combined heat and power (CHP) power plants; heat produced by renewable electrical energy that exceeds grid demand and waste heat from industrial processes.
Conversely, aquifers and underground caverns or pits are natural storage spaces for thermal energy. The storage medium typically used for this method of thermal energy storage is water. Boreholes are man-made vertical heat exchangers that work to transfer heat between the energy carrier and the ground layers.
Thermal energy storage (TES) is the storage of thermal energy for later reuse. Employing widely different technologies, it allows surplus thermal energy to be stored for hours, days, or months. Scale both of storage and use vary from small to large – from individual processes to district, town, or region.
Thermal energy storage (TES) is the process of storing heat and cold for later use. Also known as heat or cold storage, TES helps in efficiently managing thermal energy by bridging the gap between energy generation and use, which may differ in terms of time, temperature, power, or site.
