Developed by scientists in the Netherlands, the heat battery prototype consists of a storage module based on potassium carbonate and an electricity-driven mechanical system that maintains continuous charging or discharging powers. Through a series of simulations, the research group found that the device can significantly reduce a dwelling's electricity consumption for heating.A group of researchers led by the Eindhoven University of Technology in the Netherlands has developed a prototype of a solar-driven thermochemical storage system that stores thermal energy generated by solar thermal collectors. ...Den vollständigen Artikel lesen ...
