Thermal Energy Storage Is No Longer Just Hot Air

Cars That Think

It’s a somewhat overlooked form of energy, but critically important—energy in the form of heat is how half of the total energy use in the world is consumed, as much as electricity and transportation combined. Their system can take electricity or heat as input and releases hot air or steam in the range of 170 to 400 degrees Celsius as output.

Harvard team demonstrates new metal-free organic–inorganic aqueous flow battery; potential breakthrough for low-cost grid-scale storage

Green Car Congress

To store 50 hours of energy from a 1-megawatt power capacity wind turbine (50 megawatt-hours), for example, a possible solution would be to buy traditional batteries with 50 megawatt-hours of energy storage, but they would come with 50 megawatts of power capacity. You could theoretically put this on any node on the grid.
