These nine mainstream thermochemical cycles have unique advantages and disadvantages when combined with solar energy. The high reaction temperature of TWSCs from the metal oxide family results in excessively high temperature requirements for solar thermal collection and storage; therefore, they are unsuitable for integration with solar energy.
In terms of operation strategy, to coordinate the intermittent solar energy supply and stable hydrogen production, integrated systems use methods including backup heat sources, material storage, and intermittent operation, which are rarely seen in studies of the Cu–Cl cycle.
Research on thermochemical cycles, solar energy, and thermal storage are reviewed. Combinations of thermochemical cycle, solar energy, and thermal storage are given. Cu–Cl and S–I cycles are suitable for hydrogen production using solar energy. Composition, operation, performance, and application of the system is summarized.
