How Does Thermal Energy Storage Work?
Understanding Thermal Energy Storage. Thermal energy storage (TES) is a technology that stocks thermal energy by heating or cooling a storage medium so the stored energy can be used later for heating and cooling applications and power generation. This can lead to substantial operational cost savings and provide an efficient way to …
