Obiettivo
When energy supply and demand is not balanced, storage is necessary. The duration of storage is a parameter of prime importance for energy stores. Short-term thermal energy storage (a few hours to several days) is a common technique but only long-term storage will save energy. Different mediums can be used such as soil and water bearing layers (Underground Thermal Energy Storage-UTES). Goal of the project is the demonstration on a real scale (600 mwh of store) of thermal energy storage in the underground at a temperature between 40°C and maximum 85°C with VHEs (Vertical Heat Exchangers) placed into soil, composed of water-saturated sand layers. The project store will be exploited under realistic conditions (stand -alone situation).
