Of all components, thermal storage is a key component. However, it is also one of the less developed. Only a few plants in the world have tested high temperature thermal energy storage systems. In this context, high temperature is considered when storage is performed between 120 and 600 °C.
Thermal energy storage (TES) systems have the potential of increasing the effective use of thermal energy equipment and of facilitating large-scale switching. They are normally useful for correcting the mismatch between the supply and demand of energy. There are mainly two types of TES systems, sensible storage systems and latent storage systems.
Sensible TES consists of a storage medium, a container (commonly tank) and inlet/outlet devices. Tanks must both retain the storage material and prevent losses of thermal energy. The existence of a thermal gradient across storage is desirable. Sensible heat storage can be made by solid media or liquid media.
Thermal energy storage systems for CSP plants have been investigated since the start of XXI century , . Solar power towers have the potential for storing much more heat than parabolic trough collectors .
In sensible heat, energy is stored by raising the temperature of a medium. The amount of energy stored is proportional to the physical properties of the storage material, including density, volume, specific heat, and temperature change of the storage material .
In high-temperature TES, energy is stored at temperatures ranging from 100°C to above 500°C. High-temperature technologies can be used for short- or long-term storage, similar to low-temperature technologies, and they can also be categorised as sensible, latent and thermochemical storage of heat and cooling (Table 6.4).
