The invention relates to a sensible heat storage apparatus that comprises a core material that can be heated to a high temperature while it has been placed in a heat transfer fluid that absorbs essentially all the heat that is lost by any heat leakages from the core material. Accordingly, there is a very low, or almost absent overall heat loss, even though the sensible heat storage apparatus can store heat at a very high temperature. The gist of the invention is further that the high amount of heat can gradually be transferred to the HTF, which heat can in turn be put to use for domestic applications (e.g. domestic hot water and/or space heating) or for steam generation.

Thermal energy storage concept with high energy storage density

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.
