Abstract:Carnot battery is considered one of the most promising technologies for large-scale electricity storage. Among the available configurations, the so-called Integrated Energy Storage System (I-ESS) developed by the University of Padova research group allows the use of components of unused gas turbine power generation units for storage purposes. In particular, during low-demand hours, the electricity generated in surplus by, e.g., wind and solar, is used in an electric heater to heat up the air sucked by a fan. W… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
