Thermochemical heat storage, stage gate review
other
This document describes the current state of development of Thermochemical heat storage technology at ECN. The development was initiated within ECN-DEGO around the year 2002, starting with literature studies and material screening. The target application was for seasonal heat storage of solar heat for single family housings. The work was carried out within the unit DEGO߿ݠand was later on included within the Efficiency & Infrastructure program, in a collaboration with TNO in the Building Future program, and continued in the EBI program. In the period of 2010-2014 lab scale prototype system development was undertaken, as part of the E-hub project. The results from the laboratory prototype system are now collected and are included in this document. This document serves as a discussion document to support the decision process on the preferred options and actions for the next development stage of thermochemical seasonal heat storage technology. It addresses the status of the technology, the market, partners in the development, ECNs IP position, an overview of future actions to bring the technology to the next stage and funding opportunities for further development. The topics addressed in this paper are briefly answered and not intended to be a full description.
