At the other end of the spectrum, air cooling systems provide a cost-effective cooling solution for smaller stationary energy storage systems operating at a relatively low C-rate.00 For example, Pfannenberg''s cooling unit seals out the ambient air, and then cools and re-circulates clean, cool air through the enclosure.
Examples of thermal storage systems that use heat or cold to store and release energy include molten salt, liquid air, cryogenic energy storage (CES), and ice/water. For example, molten salt can store heat from concentrated solar power plants and release it to generate steam for turbines.
