Wind and solar generate cheap, clean power, but not always when it's needed most. So storing energy is an important part of a low-carbon grid — and storing it as heat can be cheaper, safer and more convenient than storing it in traditional batteries.A vast thermal tank to store hot water is pictured in Berlin, Germany, on June 30, 2022.
It can also be used directly for space or water heating. That's what happens to the heat stored in The Well system — it's part of a2:05 This is the Well complex in Toronto as viewed from the outside. It's heated and cooled by Enwave's district energy system, which gained 10 million square feet of capacity with the addition of thermal storage under the complex.
Journalists tour the inside of Vattenfall's vast thermal tank to store hot water in Berlin, Germany. Thermal batteries work well with district heating, which is widespread in Europe. found thermal batteries could make industrial heating costs using electricity competitive with natural gas, while displacing 75 per cent of fossil fuels burned for heat by U.S. industry.For space heating, Enwave collects waste heat from customers, such as data centres, and burns natural gas.
Enwave charges The Well with hot water in the fall to help heat buildings on its district heating system through the winter. In the spring, it charges The Well with cold water, and uses the stored "cold" to help provide air conditioning.. It will stash away surplus heat from renewable energy and waste-to-energy during the summer to heat an entire medium-sized city in the winter.Partly, there isn't a lot of it.
