Summary: | Solar thermal energy storage is used in many applications, from building to concentrating solar power plants and industry. The temperature levels encountered range from ambient temperature to more than 1000 °C, and operating times range from a few hours to several months. This paper reviews different types of solar thermal energy storage (sensible heat, latent heat, and thermochemical storage) for low- (40–120 °C) and medium-to-high-temperature (120–1000 °C) applications.
Le stockage thermique de l'énergie solaire touche de très nombreuses applications, qui vont du bâtiment aux centrales solaires à concentration en passant par l'industrie. Les niveaux de température rencontrés vont de la température ambiante à plus d'un millier de degrés, et les durées d'utilisation de quelques heures à plusieurs mois. Cet article passe en revue les différentes familles de stockage d'énergie solaire thermique (stockage sensible, latent et thermochimique), pour des applications à basses (40–120 °C) et moyennes–hautes températures (120–1000 °C). |
