Concrete's robust thermal stability, as highlighted by Khaliq & Waheed and Malik et al. , positions it as a reliable long-term medium for Thermal Energy Storage (TES). This stability ensures the integrity of concrete-based TES systems over extended periods, contributing to overall efficiency and reliability.
The experimental evaluation of concrete-based thermal energy storage (TES) systems is a critical process that involves conducting tests and measurements to assess their performance and validate their thermal behaviour.
In order to enhance flexibility in scaling up a high temperature TES, EnergyNest developed and tested a 2 × 500 kWth thermal energy storage system based on a modular design with HEATCRETE vp1 concrete as the storage medium, offering improved thermal conductivity, heat capacity, and compressive strength able to resist temperatures up to 400 °C.
Environmental and economic considerations Thermal energy storage (TES) in concrete provides environmental benefits by promoting energy efficiency, reducing carbon emissions and facilitating the integration of renewable energy sources. It also offers economic advantages through cost savings and enhanced energy affordability.
