Types of thermal energy storage technologies According to different heat storage principles, heat storage technology (TES) can be divided into sensible heat storage, phase change heat storage and thermochemical heat storage.
Thermal energy storage in buildings can be used to adjust the timing of electricity demand to better match intermittent supply and to satisfy distribution constraints. TES for building heating and cooling applications predominantly utilizes sensible and latent heat technologies at low temperatures (i.e., near room temperature).
Thermal storage technology plays an important role in improving the flexibility of the global energy storage system, achieving stable output of renewable energy, and improving energy utilization efficiency.
However, the three basic thermal energy storage methods are sensible heat storage, latent heat storage, and thermochemical storage. Sensible heat storage involves storing heat by increasing the temperature of a material, such as water or rock.
