Inter-seasonal energy storage and heating solar energy

6 FAQs about [Inter-seasonal energy storage and heating solar energy]

What is seasonal thermal energy storage (STES)?

Seasonal thermal energy storage (STES) harvests and stores sustainable heat sources, such as solar thermal energy and waste heat, in summer and uses them in winter for heating purposes, facilitating the replacement of fossil fuel-based heat supply and coordinating the seasonal mismatch between heat supply and demand .

What is seasonal/long-term heat storage?

The concept of seasonal/long-term heat storage presents great opportunities for making the utmost use of solar energy. Stored “excess” heat can compensate for the heat shortage when necessary. Seasonal storage offers the possibility that solar energy can cover all the heating loads without an extra heating system.

Can a seasonal solar thermal energy storage system cover winter heating demand?

While the system aims to cover winter heating demand, its success depends on practical operating conditions and fluctuating ambient temperatures. Ma et al. assessed the viability of a seasonal solar thermal energy storage (SSTES) system utilizing ammonia-based chemisorption for residential use in the UK.

Can thermochemical seasonal energy storage system be used for solar district heating?

The present article explored the potential of the thermochemical seasonal energy storage system using MgO/Mg (OH) 2 system for solar district heating applications in China. The solar district heating model with thermochemical seasonal energy storage system, including the parabolic trough solar collector and a chemical reactor, has been built.

Why is seasonal/long-term storage important for space heating?

As an important technology for solving the time-discrepancy problem of solar energy utilisation, seasonal/long-term storage is a challenging key technology for space heating and can significantly increase the solar fraction. It widens the use of solar collectors and results in better solar coverage of the space heating demand.

What is intermittent solar energy?

By means of energy storage, intermittent solar energy is able to not only meet the demands of space heating and domestic water supply but also to offer a high grade heat source all year round regardless of timing or seasonal constraints.
