The invention is directed to energy storage and supply system () comprising a combination of a heat pump (HP) () and a thermochemical storage (TCS) () unit, adapted for storing and supplying energy. In a further aspect, the invention is directed to a method for operating the energy storage and supply system (), wherein said method comprises charging and discharging phases which both comprise providing a HP warm stream by the HP and leading said HP warm stream to the TCS unit to respectively thermally charge and discharge said TCS unit.

High-cop heat pump with thermochemical storage system

The invention is directed to a system for energy storage comprising a chemical combustion reactor comprising a reactor segment that comprises at least two porous active fixed beds that are separated by an inactive insulating layer which are at least partially surrounded by an insulating mantle. The active beds comprise a metal and/or oxide thereof.

Internal configuration for redox-based heat storage systems

The invention is directed to a salt composition for use in a thermochemical energy storage device, said salt composition comprising a base and a hygroscopic salt that can produce a gas by reacting with an acid. In further aspects the invention is directed to ab energy storage compartment and a thermochemical energy storage device comprising the salt composition.

In-situ reactive absorption for equilibrium-shifting of non-condensable gases

A propulsion element including a catalyzing reactor is disclosed. The catalyzing reactor comprises a reactor entrance and a reactor exit and an internal structure arranged for flowing a reacting medium through the reactor from the reactor entrance to the reactor exit. The reactor structure comprising at least one thin walled reactor channel arranged between the entrance and the exit of the reactor. The channel having a channel wall that includes a catalyst and that defines a flow path, in which channel in use, a catalyzed exothermic reaction takes place in the medium as it flows along the flow path. The at least one channel is looped to have a portion of its flow path that is downstream with respect to the reactor entrance in heat exchanging contact with a portion of a flow path that is that is more upstream with respect to the reactor entrance, so as to transfer heat between a downstream portion of the reacting medium to an upstream portion thereof.
