![]() ![]() The selection of TES systems depends mainly on the storage period required (e.g., diurnal or seasonal), economic viability, operating conditions, etc. Therefore, TES systems are becoming increasingly important in many utility systems. TES can improve the performance of thermal systems by smoothing loads and increasing reliability. TES use can lead to savings of premium fuels and make a system more cost-effective by reducing waste energy. In general, TES can reduce the time or rate mismatch between energy supply and energy demand, thereby playing a vital role in improved energy management. TES often is the most economical storage technology for building heating, cooling, and air–conditioning applications. ![]() The use of TES systems has been attracting increasing interest in several thermal applications, e.g., active and passive solar heating, water heating, cooling, and air–conditioning. TES is considered an advanced energy technology. Dincer, in Reference Module in Earth Systems and Environmental Sciences, 2013 Concluding Remarks ![]()
