Industry is one of the leading energy consumers with a global share of 37%. Fossil fuels are used to meet more then 80% of this demand. The sun’s heat can be exploited in most industrial processes to replace fossil fuels. Integration of a thermal energy storage system is a requisite for sustainability in solar heat for industries.
Usage of renewable and clean solar energy is expanding at a rapid pace. Applications of thermal energy storage (TES) facility in solar energy field enable dispatchability in generation of electricity and home space heating requirements. It helps mitigate the intermittence issue with an energy source like solar energy.
The challenges of increasing cost-effective solar heat applications are development of thermal energy storage systems and materials that can deliver this energy at feasible economic value. Sensible thermal energy storage, which is the oldest and most developed, has recently gained interest due to demand for increased sustainability in energy use.
TES store the solar energy for continuous and effective use of solar energy in industrial applications. This ensures the balance between supply and demand (Bruch et al., 2014a, IRENA, 2013). Solar energy systems can be integrated to processes in industries in various ways. The most preferred levels of integration are supply and process sides.
The performances of solar thermal energy storage systems A TES system consists of three parts: storage medium, heat exchanger and storage tank. Storage medium can be sensible, latent heat or thermochemical storage material . The purpose of the heat exchanger is to supply or extract heat from the storage medium.
Using and storing of renewable energy in industry reduces production costs and increases the competitiveness of industry. Moreover, carbon emissions are reduced, and environmental degradation is prevented. Table 16lists design criteria of a solar TES system. Table 16. Design criteria of a solar thermal energy storage system (Tian and Zhao, 2013).
