Seasonal Energy Storage Technology Review
The total generation of variable renewable energy including solar, wind, and hydropower often tends to peak in the spring. These low-carbon energy sources also tend to abate during the fall
ADDENDUM: The promise of seasonal storage. The world's energy system is changing profoundly as we move towards a net-zero carbon future. Introducing more variable renewable energy sources (VRES), namely wind and solar PV generation into the energy mix puts pressure on the power system.
The applications of seasonal thermal energy storage (STES) facilitate the replacement of fossil fuel-based heat supply by alternative heat sources, such as solar thermal energy, geothermal energy, and waste heat generated from industries.
