“Demonstrate concrete thermal energy storage (CTES) integration with coal power plant to enable low-cost energy storage that will eliminate the need for excessive operational flexibility”
Concrete has emerged as a promising solid-based sensible heat storage (SHS) material due to its favorable balance of thermal properties, cost-effectiveness, non-toxicity, and widespread
The main challenge for regenerators is the temperature difference between charging and discharging process. Heat energy charging can be done by hot flue gas or high temperature fluid circulation
Storworks'' thermal energy storage (TES) system is designed to provide maximum flexibility for a wide range of applications. The concrete TES can be charged from steam, waste heat, or resistively
In terms of investment and maintenance costs, as well as environmental impact, concrete energy storage systems have enormous potential in the field of high-temperature energy storage
This thesis investigates the potential of using geopolymer concrete as an alternative to ordinary Portland cement (OPC) for thermal energy storage (TES) systems, particularly for high-temperature applications.
Abstract— This study conducts a numerical analysis of high-temperature Thermal Energy Storage (TES) systems, focusing on concrete used as a sensible heat storage material and potassium nitrate
The TES is based on a novel, modular storage system design, a new solid-state concrete-like storage medium, denoted HEATCRETE® vp1, - and has cast-in steel pipe heat exchangers.
