Invited Talk: State-of-technology review of water-based closed seasonal thermal energy storage systems
Abstract: Continuous use of fluctuating renewable energy resources is facilitated only by temporal storage solutions. For long-term and seasonal heat storage, many large-scale closed seasonal thermal energy storages (TES) have been built in the recent decades. Still there is no consistent picture available that contrasts the different technologies and summarises the major findings from the implemented storage facilities. This talk is about the state-of-the art of these TES and offers future perspectives based on 31 locations in Europe with a total available storage volume of nearly 800,000 m³, corresponding to a capacity of 56,600 MWh in the case of optimised storage utilisation. Three construction types prove to be the most promising concepts: tank thermal energy storages, pit thermal energy storages, and water-gravel thermal energy storages. The characteristic technological elements such as filling, waterproofing, and thermal insulation are discussed in detail to highlight successes and failures, as well as to display the latest innovations and research trends.
