Energy is delivered to a storage system to be used and retrieved later. A cycle may be used to describe the process of storing thermal energy in three phases. The three stages are charging, storing, and discharging. The storage cycle applies to a variety of energy storage methods, including chemical, latent, and sensible storage.
Two examples are thermal ES and electrical ES. Fig. 5 displays the various types of energy storage systems. The figure clearly shows that thermal energy-storing methods, like sensible heat storage and latent heat storage or water storage systems, discharge thermal energy in the same manner as it was stored.
It is important to compare the capacity, storage and discharge times, maximum number of cycles, energy density, and efficiency of each type of energy storage system while choosing for implementation of these technologies. SHS and LHS have the lowest energy storage capacities, while PHES has the largest.
There are three main thermal energy storage (TES) modes: sensible, latent and thermochemical. Traditionally, heat storage has been in the form of sensible heat, raising the temperature of a medium.
