A Review of Thermochemical Energy Storage Systems for Power Grid Support

“…[138] thermal collectors, Zondag H. at al. [139] exhaust air from buildings. Li et al [140] developed a thermochemical (sorption) storage system based on use of methanol to recover the heat from photovoltaic (PV) panels.…”

“…As an example, Lass-Seyoum et al [136] used industrial waste heat and heat from CHP systems, Helden et al [137] thermal collectors, Zondag H. et al [138] exhaust air from buildings. Li et al [139] developed a thermochemical (sorption) storage system based on use of methanol to recover the heat from photovoltaic (PV) panels.…”

“…Heat stored is use both heating demand and supply of electricity during the discharging phase. Their results showed that an Cammarata et al [139] developed a hybrid thermochemical storage device to store the excess of power generation. The system was developed for household applications for low to medium temperature range (50-100 • C).…”

“…Cammarata et al [139] Power-to-heat (household application) SrBr 2 /H 2 O Energy density: 500 kJ/kg Ferrucci et al [173] Power-to-heat (integrated into electric driven cooling system) BaCl 2 /NH 3 Energy density: 200 kJ/kg COP = 4.8…”

Combined Solar Thermochemical Solid/Gas Energy Storage Process for Domestic Thermal Applications: Analysis of Global Performance

“…However, the authors faced the decrease of material performances over time. This is a known issue of this salt hydrate [29], that was resolved in the recently developed composite materials [23,30]. Mette et al [31] developed the combined thermochemical energy storage with The design of the system configuration depends on the way how the storage is planned to be integrated to the building.…”
