Smart energy storage heating system

What is smart thermal battery storage?

Unlike conventional battery storage systems that store energy in chemical form, smart thermal batteries utilize heat as a storage medium. This innovative approach combines the benefits of battery storage with the efficiency of thermal energy management.

What is a smart energy system?

Smart energy systems are a well established concept which has been defined as: “...an approach in which smart electricity, thermal and gas grids are combined with storage technologies and coordinated to identify synergies between them in order to achieve an optimal solution for each individual sector as well as for the overall energy system .”

What is thermal energy storage?

Abstract Thermal energy storage (TES) is recognized as a well-established technology added to the smart energy systems to support the immediate increase in energy demand, flatten the rapid supply-side changes, and reduce energy costs through an efficient and sustainable integration.

Can a district-scale smart energy system be used for seasonal thermal energy storage?

An example district-scale smart energy system is outlined to analyse three potential smart applications for seasonal thermal energy storage: (i) utilisation of multiple renewable energy sources, (ii) integrating waste heat and cool, and (iii) electrical network balancing.
