“…Examples include making use of storage capacity of vehicle batteries and of heat stored in the fabric of homes equipped with heat pumps to provide real/virtual electricity storage to support the grid. Perhaps less familiar are the opportunities presented by district heating systems to integrate multiple forms of heat, electricity and fuel storage [48]. All of this will provide multiple opportunities for increasing flexibility and resilience, at the same time as potentially introducing new mechanisms for failure.…”

“…The presence of TES makes it possible also to shift the electricity production to hours when the unit price is higher [131]. Ramm et al [132] explored the integration of heat pumps and TES with CHP and how this integration allows stabilizing the electric and thermal grids. The study concluded that it is possible to couple thermal and electricity grids by using heat pumps, TES, and CHP through a controlled strategy, and stability can be provided to a low and medium voltage grid.…”

In order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, current and future energy systems need to be made more efficient and sustainable. This change can be accomplished by increasing the penetration of renewable energy sources and using efficient technologies in energy generation systems. One way to improve the operation of the whole energy system is through the generation and end-use sector coupling. Power-to-heat energy conversion and storage technologies, in this view, are enabling technologies that can help in balancing and improving the efficiency of both thermal and electric grids. In the present paper, a comprehensive analysis of the role of heat pumps and thermal energy storage for sector coupling is presented. The main features of the analyzed technologies are presented in the context of smart electric grid, district heating and cooling and multi-carrier energy systems, and recent findings and developments are highlighted. Finally, the technical, social, and economic challenges in the adoption of investigated technologies are discussed.

“…On the other hand, current research on DHSs focusses on the integration into the overall energy system in order to reduce the environmental impact. One example of an innovative DHS which addresses both measurers, is described by Ramm et al (2017). The system is located in Dollnstein (Germany) and operating since 2015.…”

Within this paper, the concept of developing a detailed model for an existing district heating system (DHS) is described. The research focusses on the central heating station with multiple different supply units. In the present case, the model is implemented with a close-toreality-control and will be used for testing new control strategies for the DHS. Therefore, a model with both realistic behavior as well as control interfaces similar to the real control is necessary. Within the NATAR research project (Local heating grids with lowered temperature as provider of balancing power), different targets for the improvement of the control will be investigated. One major target is an intelligent linking between the heat and electrical sector to demonstrate the opportunities of heating grids, as the investigated one, to balance the power grid.
