Project description
New technologies for renewable energy deployment in district heating and cooling networks
Heating and cooling in the residential sector are responsible for as much as 40 % of overall energy use. Innovative solutions for district heating and cooling (DHC) are therefore necessary for higher deployment of renewable energy. The EU-funded RESTORE project will develop a solution based on thermo-chemical energy storage (TCES) and organic Rankine cycle (ORC) technology. TCES allows the enormous amount of energy that is wasted to be stored and harnessed, and ORC technology adapts the energy provided by different renewable energy sources to feed the storage and supply systems. By combining TCES and ORC, the project will develop a solution that can tackle the main barriers to the wide deployment of renewable energy and waste heat in DHC.
