6 FAQs about [Solar thermal energy storage on a large scale]

What are thermal storage technologies?

Thermal storage technologies have the potential to provide large capacity, long-duration storage to enable high penetrations of intermittent renewable energy, flexible energy generation for conventional baseload sources, and seasonal energy needs. Thermal storage options include sensible, latent, and thermochemical technologies.

What is large-scale energy storage?

Large-scale energy storage enables the storage of vast amounts of energy produced at one time and its release at another. This technology is critical for balancing supply and demand in renewable energy systems, such as wind and solar, which are inherently intermittent.

What is the Technology Strategy assessment on thermal energy storage?

This technology strategy assessment on thermal energy storage, released as part of the Long-Duration Storage Shot, contains the findings from the Storage Innovations (SI) 2030 strategic initiative.

What is thermal energy storage?

Thermal energy storage in buildings can be used to adjust the timing of electricity demand to better match intermittent supply and to satisfy distribution constraints. TES for building heating and cooling applications predominantly utilizes sensible and latent heat technologies at low temperatures (i.e., near room temperature).

How much does a thermal storage system cost?

The target capital cost for the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) CSP program is $15/kWh for the entire thermal storage system. Molten salts freeze at >200°C, which requires expensive trace heating to maintain all components at temperatures well above the freezing point.
