The heat transfer apparatus comprises a storage reservoir containing salt as a heat carrier with a heater connected into the reservoir to heat the heat carrier so as to maintain it above the freezing point. The heater may comprise an electric heater or a fluid which is circulated for example from a separate heat exchanger. An intermediate heat exchanger is connected so that the salt is circulated therethrough and in heat transfer relationship to an intermediate heat carrier such as a metal alloy which is circulated from a consumption heat exchanger. The intermediate heat exchanger is in heat exchange relationship with a consumption heat carrier.
