  1. 1. High-Temperature Thermal Energy Storage for Innovative Hybrid CSP/PV Plants : A Comprehensive Design Optimization

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Lorenzo Centonze; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : By means of a literature review, critical parameters in the context of thermal energy storage systems, particularly packed bed thermal energy storage systems are identified. The goals of this thesis project are to come up with an optimized design for a PBSTES and to evaluate the thermal performance of alternative storage materials derived from byproducts of industrial processes and natural rocks in order to reduce the environmental impact of the designed system.

  2. 2. Techno-economic fesibility of a hybrid CSP (sCO2) - PV plant for hydrogen production

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Patricia Perez De La Calle; [2023]
    Keywords : Soec oxide electrolyzer cell SOEC ; Concentrated solar plant CSP ; Super critical cO2 sCO2 ; photovoltaic field PV ; Thermal storage TES ; electrolyzer; MoSES; high temperature electrolysis THE .;

    Abstract : The global need to eliminate CO2 emissions and its consequent reduction in the use of fossil fuels drives the ongoing energy transition that highly involves the research achievements of the scientific community to reach the goals of this purpose. Renewable sources like photovoltaic and wind energy, are central to this endeavor, however, the intermittency of natural resources makes it non-dispatchable and energy storage is fundamental.

  3. 3. Modelling and Techno-economic Analysis of a Hybrid CSP/PV System using Solid Oxide Electrolyser for Hydrogen Production

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Chuanyin Tang; [2023]
    Keywords : Power to Hydrogen; Solid Oxide Electrolyser; CSP; PV; LCOE; LCOH.;

    Abstract : This project proposes a solar-driven hybrid system for electricity generation and hydrogen production, which includes concentrated solar power (CSP), photovoltaic (PV), solid oxide electrolyser (SOEC). Electricity from the CSP and PV provides a continuous 24/7 supply to meet demand-side power consumption.

  4. 4. Performance Evaluation of a High Temperature Borehole Thermal Energy Storage Under Influence of Groundwater Flow

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Max Hesselbrandt; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Recent years have seen a growing interest in large-scale high-temperature borehole thermal energy storage (HT-BTES) as a means to store industrial waste heat and solar energy between the seasons. A profound understanding and characterization of the thermal and hydraulic processes involved in such systems is required for the optimal design as well as for environmental assessments of the storage.

  5. 5. Possibilities with Stirling Engine and High Temperature Thermal Energy Storage in Multi-Energy Carrier System : An analysis of key factors influencing techno-economic perspective of Stirling engine and high-temperature thermal energy storage

    University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för ekonomi, samhälle och teknik

    Author : Martin Myska; [2021]
    Keywords : Stirling engine; High-temperature thermal energy storage; Linear optimization; Photovoltaics; Time of Use; Renewable energy; Load shifting; Self-consumption; Power grid;

    Abstract : Small and medium-scale companies are trying to minimise their carbon footprint and improve their cash flow, renewable installations are increasing all over the Europe and are expected to do so in following years. However, their dependency on the weather cause pressure on matching the production with demand. READ MORE
