CORDIS

A high-efficiency energy storage system that captures energy generated from renewable sources, waste energy from industry, and solar radiation, in a compressed fluid and heat pump hybrid system.

Objective

Despite incentives for their use (e.g. renovation grants in Ireland and the UK, preferential low-interest loans in France and Germany), and their increasing adoption by SME’s, renewable energy sources fail to properly meet the demands of their users. In turn, they fail to effectively reduce demand on fossil fuels and public grids. For solar energy, this is due to an inherent mismatch between the solar peak, in the middle of the day, and the energy demand peaks placed on grids in the mornings and evenings; wind energy suffers from instability due to factors like low or inconsistent wind speeds. TEES makes use of compressed fluid and pumped-heat technology to store energy generated by renewable resources and return it on demand at an efficiency of over 85%. TEES also attends to the challenges of providing a robust electricity grid to communities with unstable grids, or large population centres where demand is beginning to exceed national grids’ ability to provide a stable supply of electrical power.

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Funding Scheme

Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.

SME-1 - SME instrument phase 1

Coordinator

THERMA SPHERA LTD
Net EU contribution

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
