Thermal energy storage system Renewable energy systems require energy storage, and TES is used for heating and cooling applications . Unlike photovoltaic units, solar systems predominantly harness the Sun's thermal energy and have distinct efficiencies. However, they rely on a radiation source for thermal support.
In thermal energy storage systems, PCMs are essential for storing energy during high renewable energy generation periods, such as solar and wind. This energy storage capability allows for more efficient supply and demand management, enhancing grid stability and supporting the integration of renewable energy sources .
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 review highlights the latest advancements in thermal energy storage systems for renewable energy, examining key technological breakthroughs in phase change materials (PCMs), sensible thermal storage, and hybrid storage systems. Practical applications in managing solar and wind energy in residential and industrial settings are analyzed.
An example is a 30,000 ton of refrigeration (TR), TES tank installed in a football stadium for managing peak load demands and serving as a chiller backup. Residential applications are also exploring thermal energy storage systems to boost energy efficiency and cut down on waste.
This matrix is a valuable tool for documenting decision-making and ensuring transparency in how studies were selected or excluded. By adhering to these rigorous screening procedures, the review aims to deliver reliable and high-quality insights into the advancements in thermal energy storage systems for renewable energy.
