This means a more reliable and constant supply of energy on and off-grid. Currently storage of electrical energy in Australia consists of a small number of pumped hydroelectric facilities and grid-scale batteries, and a diversity of battery storage systems at small scale, used mainly for backup.
The grid-scale MGA Thermal Energy Storage can capture and store excess renewable electricity on the grid at times of high VRE generation / low or negative market spot price. When located on the site of an existing thermal power station, the pre-existing grid connection may be utilised to avoid the capital cost of transformers.
According to a study conducted by ITP Thermal in 2019, approximately 42% of Australia’s total energy consumption is used in industry, with 51% of that being used for process heating, and 21% as electricity (Figure 1).
Sensible heat thermal energy storage systems rely on the energy contained in a material measurable as a change in temperature, while latent heat systems rely on a reversible phase change such as melting or boiling to store energy.
