Thermal energy storage (TES) is increasingly important due to the demand-supply challenge caused by the intermittency of renewable energy and waste heat dissipation to the environment. This paper discusses the fundamentals and novel applications of TES materials and identifies appropriate TES materials for particular applications.
This article reviews the thermal energy storage (TES) for CSPs and focuses on detailing the latest advancement in materials for TES systems and advanced thermal fluids for high energy conversion efficiency. Problems of TES systems, such as high temperature corrosion with their proposed solutions, as well as successful implementations are reported.
This is one of the solar energy storage problems facing the solar energy sector and they need to be addressed. This is not just the main problem associated with solar energy storage systems but also the most vexing problem. Though the prices of solar batteries have reduced drastically, they are still outrageously high.
Thermal energy storage material is the key component to be considered in optimizing the design, operation, and cost of the CSP system. The material defines the feasibility of the system and makes it cost-comparable with conventional power plants. The desired characteristics of a TES material reported in [ 11, 12] are given as
The charging and discharging of the thermal energy storage system (TES) is addressed in the literature. However, the problem of temperature variation as the thermal front approaches the end of the tank is required to be addressed in the literature.
Thermal energy storage (TES) systems store heat or cold for later use and are classified into sensible heat storage, latent heat storage, and thermochemical heat storage. Sensible heat storage systems raise the temperature of a material to store heat. Latent heat storage systems use PCMs to store heat through melting or solidifying.
