Heat Battery for Electrical Grid Energy Storage

Summary

This document addresses the critical challenge of providing cost-effective energy storage for renewable electricity generation, which is non-dispatchable and expensive to integrate at scale with current battery technologies like lithium-ion. It proposes a heat battery system as a competitive alternative, outlining its development using systems engineering principles, including stakeholder analysis, concept selection, and technical requirements definition. The project is currently in the planned conceptualization phase, aiming to define a viable system to support decarbonization goals.
