Evidence Gathering: Thermal Energy Storage (TES) Technologies We have carried out in-depth research looking at the range of different thermal energy storage technologies in the UK, as well as gaining an understanding into experiences and learning from other European countries. The aim is to inform a wide audience about heat energy storage products building up a picture of what we currently know and where the gaps are in the research. The specific questions addressed include: Provide an understanding of the difference between various TES technologies and evaluate their technological potential. A review of the current UK market and outline of the availability of products and the types of projects realised. The costs of different TES and what the future cost trajectory may look like. The primary market barriers which influence the current market and future potential of TES. Review of the current evidence available and identification of where gaps exist. Understanding the different TES technologies TES includes a wide range of technologies and applications. Throughout the report the different technologies are explained and the technological differences and application cases will be compared. Different TES technologies have specific application cases and storage timeframes. For example, some technologies, such as PTES are most suitable to be used at large scale (e.g. district heating) and can be used for interseasonal storage; while others like PCM are more suitable for domestic and commercial buildings for intra-day storage. To provide a high level understanding, Table 2 provides a summary of the key TES technologies, their various potential energy inputs (interacting technologies), system efficiency and current market status (using Technology Readiness Level as outlined by the European Commission)3. 3 The European Commission (2013; Horizon 2020 work programme) has defined 9 Technology Readiness Levels (TRL). For the purpose of providing a basis for the comparison of market status we have adopted the Commission’s definitions, as found in the Horizon 2020 Work Programme 2014-2015 - General Annex G: TRL 1 – basic principles observed TRL 2 – technology concept formulated TRL 3 – experimental proof of concept TRL 4 – technology validated in lab TRL 5 – technology validated in relevant environment (industrially relevant environment in the case of key enabling technologies) TRL 6 – technology demonstrated in relevant environment (industrially relevant environment in the case of key enabling technologies) TRL 7 – system prototype demonstration in operational environment TRL 8 – system complete and qualified TRL 9 – actual system proven in operational environment (competitive manufacturing in the case of key enabling technologies; or in space) 9PDF Image | Thermal Energy Storage (TES) Technologies
