Thermal energy storage system converts heat energy into electrical energy and stores electricity. It was classified into three types, such as sensible heat, latent heat and thermochemical heat storage system (absorption and adsorption system) (65). (Figure 14) shows the schematic representation of each thermal energy storage systems (66).
Thermochemical energy storage system involves the dissociation or breaking of bonds and the energy storage takes place during this process. The release of energy occurs during the reverse process. Like other system, the charging, discharging and storing process takes place in this system.
Classification according to the form of heat storage There are three ways to store thermal energy in TES: sensible, thermochemical, or latent heat. In sensible heat storage systems, thermal energy is stored by increasing the temperature of the material (usually liquid or solid).
Applications of PCM-Based Thermal Energy Storage Systems are observed in many other not limited but rather general ones. PCMs are used in solar power plants to save extra thermal energy at maximum sun.
