In addition to the conventional chemical fuels, new chemical and thermochemical energy storage technologies include sorption and thermochemical reactions such as ammonia system. The main purpose of large chemical energy storage system is to use excess electricity and heat to produce energy carrier, either as pure hydrogen or as SNG.
Abovementioned chemical adsorption/absorption materials and chemical reaction materials without sorption can also be regarded as chemical energy storage materials. Moreover, pure or mixed gas fuels are commonly used as energy storage materials, which are considered as chemical energy storage materials.
Chemical energy storage in the form of biomass, coal, and gas is crucial for the current energy generation system. It will also be an essential component of the future renewable energy system. With each facility ranging in the terawatt-hours, chemical energy storage has by far the largest capacity.
The key factors for such kinds of chemical energy storage materials are as follows: Large density; Easy to store and transport; Compatible to the existing infrastructure; Easy to produce and high round-trip efficiency; Environment friendly. Different chemical energy storage materials are listed as follows. Hydrogen.
The chemical energy storage with second energy carriers is also presented with hydrogen, hydrocarbons, ammonia, and synthetic natural gas as storage and energy carriers. These energy storage systems can support grid power, transportation, and host of other large-scale energy needs including avionics and shipping.
In energy storage technologies, energy in the form of either chemical, thermal, electric, or kinetic is absorbed and is stored for a period of time before releasing it to supply energy or power services. The energy can be transformed to many different forms for storage: As electric field in capacitors.
