Molten Salt Storage for Power Generation

For energy storage in CSP plants, mixtures of alkali nitrate salts are the preferred candidate fluids. Natural rocks and waste product from the process industry were also examined in direct contact as inexpensive filler materials 33-35. For CHP operation, the storage plant could be located close to the end-use as an "on-site storage

Flexible operation of thermal plants with integrated energy storage

The energy system in the EU requires today as well as towards 2030 to 2050 significant amounts of thermal power plants in combination with the continuously increasing share of Renewables Energy Sources (RES) to assure the grid stability and to secure electricity supply as well as to provide heat. The operation of the conventional fleet should be harmonised with
