Summary

Thermochemical storage based on the reversible solid-gas sorption process is a technical solution that can be relevantly applied in refrigeration, air conditioning and heat pump to meet the growing energy demand in buildings and industry. The “ThermoStore” process developed by Coldway© is a breakthrough innovation to accelerate the decarbonisation of industry. It allows for the valorisation of waste heat sources available in different temperature ranges or the storage of renewable energy. Such a process enables energy to be stored in the form of chemical potential, without losses and storage duration limitation, and provides simultaneous production of cold and heat. A demonstration of such a concept is currently being carried out as part of the Horizon 2020 project, MiniStor, “Thermal and electrical energy storage system for on-site residential installation”, that aims to provide both heating and cooling through an integrated, flexible unit exploiting low temperature solar energy (60 °C to 70 °C).
