Applications of thermal energy storage (TES) facility in solar energy field enable dispatchability in generation of electricity and home space heating requirements.
The performances of solar thermal energy storage systems A TES system consists of three parts: storage medium, heat exchanger and storage tank. Storage medium can be sensible, latent heat or thermochemical storage material . The purpose of the heat exchanger is to supply or extract heat from the storage medium.
2. The properties of solar thermal energy storage materials Applications like house space heating require low temperature TES below 50 °C, while applications like electrical power generation require high temperature TES systems above 175 °C .
Usage of renewable and clean solar energy is expanding at a rapid pace. Applications of thermal energy storage (TES) facility in solar energy field enable dispatchability in generation of electricity and home space heating requirements. It helps mitigate the intermittence issue with an energy source like solar energy.
In small-scale distributed solar power systems, such as solar-driven ORC systems [69, 73], low-temperature thermal energy storage materials can be used. For example, water, organic aliphatic compounds, inorganic hydrated-salt PCMs and thermal oils have been investigated for solar combined heat and power applications .
In Jemalong Solar Thermal Station in Australia, liquid sodium at 560°C is used as the storage material. Thermal oils have also been used in Dahan Power Plant in China and in many researches . Apart from these fluid-type thermal energy storage materials, solid materials (concrete and rocks) are another option for thermal energy storage [71, 72].

Heat storage — storing solar energy directly as thermal mass rather than converting it to electricity and back — is 5 to 10 times cheaper per kWh of storage capacity than battery storage, lasts indefinitely, and requires no electronics, BMS, or inverter. The trade-off: you can only use the stored. Thermal storage technologies have the potential to provide large capacity, long-duration storage to enable high penetrations of intermittent renewable energy, flexible energy generation for conventional baseload sources, and seasonal energy needs. Thermal storage options include sensible, latent. To eliminate its intermittence feature, thermal energy storage is vital for efficient and stable operation of solar energy utilization systems. It is an effective way of decoupling the energy demand and generation, while plays an important role on smoothing their fluctuations.
