Techno-Economic Comparison of Brayton Pumped Thermal Electricity Storage (PTES) Systems Based on Solid and Liquid Sensible Heat Storage

To integrate large shares of renewable energy sources in electric grids, large-scale and long-duration (4–8+ h) electric energy storage technologies must be used. A promising storage technology of this kind is pumped thermal electricity storage based on Brayton cycles. The paper’s novel contribution...
