Expert opinion The development of advanced materials and systems for thermal energy storage is crucial for integrating renewable energy sources into the grid, as highlighted by the U.S. Department of Energy's Thermal Energy Storage Technology Strategy Assessment.
For energy storage technologies to be used more widely by commercial and residential consumers, research should focus on making them more scalable and affordable. Energy storage is a crucial component of the global energy system, necessary for maintaining energy security and enabling a steadfast supply of energy.
Energy storage is used to facilitate the integration of renewable energy in buildings and to provide a variable load for the consumer. TESS is a reasonably commonly used for buildings and communities to when connected with the heating and cooling systems.
An example is a 30,000 ton of refrigeration (TR), TES tank installed in a football stadium for managing peak load demands and serving as a chiller backup. Residential applications are also exploring thermal energy storage systems to boost energy efficiency and cut down on waste.
The results of this study suggest that these technologies can be viable alternatives to traditional fuel sources, especially in remote areas and applications where the need for low-emission, unwavering, and cost-efficient energy storage is critical. The study shows energy storage as a way to support renewable energy production.
It is important to compare the capacity, storage and discharge times, maximum number of cycles, energy density, and efficiency of each type of energy storage system while choosing for implementation of these technologies. SHS and LHS have the lowest energy storage capacities, while PHES has the largest.
