One main research gap in thermal energy storage systems is the development of effective and efficient storage materials and systems. Research has highlighted the need for advanced materials with high energy density and thermal conductivity to improve the overall performance of thermal energy storage systems . 4.4.2. Limitations
The development of advanced materials and systems for thermal energy storage is crucial for integrating renewable energy sources into the grid, as highlighted by the U.S. Department of Energy's Thermal Energy Storage Technology Strategy Assessment.
2.4. Thermal energy storage system (TES) Systems for storing thermal energy which can be obtained by cooling, heating, melting, condensing, or vaporizing substances are known as TES systems. The materials are kept in an insulated repository at either high or low temperatures, depending on the operating temperature range.
In the Nordic region, Finland, Norway and Sweden are combining their collective strengths in the battery value chain through the Nordic Battery Collaboration. As a battery region, the Nordics have become a notable actor in the broader European battery market.
Electric cars now account for 79 per cent of new cars sold in Norway, and the MS Medstraum was recently launched as the world’s first electric fast ferry. In a global report on lithium-ion batteries, Norway ranked first in sustainability. These are impressive records. Even so, stationary energy storage is beginning to steal the limelight.
The system is assessed based on its strengths, including its energy density, cycle life, and suitability for grid-scale applications, as well as its challenges, including cost, environmental concerns, and safety concerns. 2.4. Thermal energy storage system (TES)
