There are three feasible TES approaches: sensible heat storage, latent heat storage and chemical heat storage [[4], [5], [6]]. Among them, latent heat storage (LHS) with phase change materials (PCMs) can store a large amount of thermal energy with minimal temperature fluctuations, and the temperature of supply and return water offered
Why Large Thermal Energy Storages for District Heating? Target for 100% renewable energy generation; LTES provide: More flexibility in DH Systems. Higher share of renewables and waste heat.
