Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to
  • electrothermal energy storage It relates in particular to a system and method for storing thermal energy according to the preamble of the independent patent claims.
  • Electro-thermal energy storage (ETES) systems are Electro-thermal energy storage (ETES) systems.
  • thermoelectric energy storage sometimes also referred to as thermoelectric energy storage
  • thermoelectric energy storage plays an ever increasing role for production and distribution of energy, in particular electric energy.
  • the basic principles of electro-thermal energy storage are described e.g. in EP 1 577 548 Al and EP 2 157 317 A2, which are hereby included by reference in their entirety.
  • the ETES system described in EP 2157317 A2 converts excess electricity to heat in a charging mode, stores the heat, and converts the heat back to electricity in a discharging mode when required.
  • Such an energy storage system is robust, compact, and suited to the storage of electrical energy in large amounts.
  • Thermal energy can be stored by one or more thermal storage media in the form of sensible heat via a change in temperature or in the form of latent heat via a change of phase or a
  • the storage medium for the sensible heat may be a solid, liquid, or a gas.
  • the storage medium for the latent heat may involve any of these phases or a combination of them in series or in parallel.
  • an electro-thermal energy storage system comprises at least one hot thermal storage arrangement
  • the charging mode of the ETES system is generally realized by operating a heat pump between the cold thermal storage arrangement and the hot thermal storage arrangement, whereas the discharging mode is realized by operating a heat engine between the hot thermal storage arrangement and the cold thermal storage arrangement.
  • Heat pump and heat engine may be individual thermodynamic machines with separate working fluid circuits, possibly containing different working fluids, and without common parts. Preferably, however, a single
  • thermodynamic machine with a single working fluid circuit may be configured to alternatively act as a heat pump or a heat engine by reverting a flow direction of the single working fluid, i.e. by switching between a heat pump cycle and a heat engine cycle.
  • heat needs to be transferred from hot working fluid to the first thermal storage medium during the heat pump cycle and back from the first thermal storage medium to working fluid during the heat engine cycle.
  • a heat pump requires work to move thermal energy from a thermal energy source on a cold side, e.g. the second thermal storage medium of the cold thermal storage arrangement, to a (warmer) thermal energy sink on a hot side, e.g. to the first thermal storage medium of the hot thermal storage arrangement. Since the amount of energy deposited at the hot side is greater than the work required by an amount equal to the energy taken from the cold side, a heat pump will "multiply" the heat as compared to resistive heat generation.
  • the ratio of heat output to work input is called coefficient of performance, and it is a value larger than one. In this way, the use of a heat pump will increase the round-trip efficiency of a ETES system.
  • ETES systems are preferably installed in a so called site independent arrangement, where the ETES would ideally be a closed system without any thermal interaction with its environment.
  • ice storage is preferably foreseen as part of the cold thermal storage arrangement to form the cold end of the charging and discharging cycles of the system; i.e. ice would be produced during in charging mode, while ice would be consumed when the ETES is in discharging mode.
  • CO2 may preferably be used as working fluid; and is preferably evaporated to produce ice when the ETES system is in charging mode, and condensed to melt ice in discharge mode.
  • the ETES system has to interact with an environment in some way in order to compensate for the losses of the involved processes, i.e. release the losses to the
  • auxiliary heat pump which would generate additional cold by interaction with the environment.
  • the cold would be used to cool the second thermal storage medium of the cold thermal storage arrangement, in order to compensate for the losses of the whole system.
  • an additional ammonia chiller could be used to produce additional ice, in particular in the charging mode.
  • the auxiliary heat pump would supply cold to compensate for the losses in order to enable the periodic charging and discharging operation to work repeatedly.
  • WO 2011103306 Al describes a method of keeping energy balance in an electro-thermal energy storage system based on a Rankine cycle.
  • the document discloses a "storage refrigerant circuit that receives input electric power and converts the electric power to stored thermal energy" with "a second
  • the method uses cooling on the hot side after the compressor to balance the electro-thermal energy storage.
  • a temperature difference between the thermal storage medium and the working fluid may be reduced using intermediate thermal storage tanks as described in the applicant's earlier patent application EP 2275649. Such factors would also enable the ETES system to have a higher round-trip efficiency.
