Summary

Recent literature in the field of cold thermal energy storage (CTES) is reviewed. First, the concept of the CTES is explained. Examples of load levelling of electrical energy in various countries are presented. Various types of CTES are defined and compared for their merits and demerits. The systems compared are a cold-water storage vs. an ice-making storage, a static ice-making storage vs. a dynamic ice-making storage, and direct ice-making vs. indirect ice-making. Approximately 140 papers are reviewed and divided into five categories: 1) performance of successful systems; 2) simulation and control; 3) cold-water storage; 4) static ice-making storage; and 5) dynamic ice-making storage. Finally, suggestions for future research are provided.
