Both high- and low temperature storage technologies are key in securing a stable and cost-effective energy supply in the future and likewise, vital in creating balance between supply and demand.
Aalborg CSP has worked with high- and low temperature storage technologies for years and is highly experienced in designing systems, which integrate thermal energy storage with various renewable energy systems and solutions. We offer supply and installation of low temperature storage solutions such as Pit Thermal Energy Storages (PTES) and high temperature systems such as power-to-salt (PTXSALT) systems and Carnot Batteries.
Excess heat or electricity from wind turbines, solar-, biomass-, or PV plants as well as energy from the process industry can be transferred and stored, thereby offering a much-needed flexibility to the volatile energy system. The energy stays within the same sector or is converted and repurposed within other sectors e.g., district heating or transportation – a process referred to as Power-to-X (PTX).
Well-integrated PTES systems enable efficient utilization of surplus energy from renewable sources and industry, as well as the delivery of stable and cost-effective heating and cooling on demand.
Pit Thermal Energy Storages
The growth of fluctuating renewable energy sources requires flexible, low-cost and efficient electrical storage such as Carnot Batteries to create balance between supply and demand as well as security of supply.
Carnot Batteries
High-temperature thermal energy storage solutions, including power-to-salt systems, contribute to securing a balanced and stable energy system with increased amounts of renewable, fluctuating energy.
High-temperature TES
PTES systems from Aalborg CSP use a patented and certified lid solution whose unique design features help increase the efficiency and reliability of the storage, thereby ensuring its long-term durability.
