Each containerized Solarator™ BESS can be rapidly deployed in remote, regional, and urban environments within 30 minutes, and we offer redundancies to ensure an uninterrupted power
Solar thermal energy storage is used in many applications: buildings, concentrating solar power plants and industrial processes. Solar thermal water heaters capable of heating water during
Several emerging technologies may be viable for this application— including low-carbon fuels such as hydrogen and ammonia, thermochemical energy storage, or geo-thermal energy storage.
Seasonal thermal energy storage is an effective way to improve the comprehensive energy utilization rate. Solar energy and natural cold heat can be efficiently utilized through seasonal
This feat – a world record – is enabled by inter-seasonal heat storage in a large mass of native rock that is under a central park. The thermal exchange occurs via a cluster of 144 boreholes,
Due to the seasonal discrepancy between solar radiation availability and the heat demand for building heating, it is necessary to implement seasonal storage systems to
However, only a few technologies are capable of offsetting the long-term (seasonal) mismatch between renewable generation and energy demand. Here we outline the role and
The seasonal heat storage technology stores the surplus solar energy in spring, summer, and autumn and releases it for large-scale regional centralized heating and hot water supply in winter.

There are several types of STES technology, covering a range of applications from single small buildings to community district heating networks. Generally, efficiency increases and the specific construction cost decreases with size. UTES (underground thermal energy storage), in which the storage medium may be geological strata ranging from earth or sand to solid bedrock, or aquifers. UTES technologies include:
Grid-integrated seasonal energy storage can reshape seasonal fluctuations of variable and uncertain power generation by reducing energy curtailment, replacing peak generation
