Southern Research Institute, DOE Agree to Develop Thermal Storage for Solar Energy; Michael Johns Comments
Southern Research Institute and the Energy Department have inked a $1.05 million cooperative agreement to create a thermochemical energy storage system for a DOE solar program. The nonprofit research organization said Thursday it will produce a TCES system made of calcium-based sorbent that stores energy in a “reversible closed-loop endothermic-exothermic chemical reaction cycle.” The Concentrating Solar Power: Efficiently Leveraging […] More
