Solid-state batteries, which show the merits of high energy density, large-scale manufacturability and improved safety, are recognized as the leading candidates for the next generation energy storage systems.
Some entrepreneurs are looking beyond chemical batteries to store thermal energy directly—a new field called thermal energy storage. TES systems have substantial advantages over chemical batteries: The raw materials used to store energy—dirt, concrete, salt—are cheap and plentiful.
Because of their flexibility and long duration energy storage capabilities, thermal batteries can charge when electricity is cheapest (typically during windy or sunny times when wind and solar generation exceeds demand), soaking up energy that would otherwise be wasted and storing it for later use.
Secondly, as shown in Fig. 7b, when it is exposed to a high temperature above 130 °C, the electrolyte experiences the second radical reaction, turning to solid state from previous liquid state. The full LFP/TSE/Li battery can operate well even at 150 °C.
