Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), the German Aerospace Center (DLR), and the industry partner KSB have now launched the LIMELISA project to develop the necessary basis. Research is funded with EUR 3.8 million by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy. Every year, wind parks and solar facilities in Germany produce thousands of gigawatt hours of power that cannot be used directly and therefore remain unused. At other times, lacking capacities are compensated by energy from fossil sources. Large-scale electrothermal storage systems may solve this problem and additionally enhance grid stability.

Karlsruher Institute for Technology: Renewable energies: On the way to large-scale thermal storage

Share With high-temperature technologies, electrothermal network storage systems are possible, with which large amounts of energy from renewable sources can be buffered. In the joint project LIMELISA, the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) and the German Aerospace Center (DLR) are developing the necessary fundamentals together with the industrial partner KSB. The Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy is funding research with 3.8 million euros. In Germany, wind farms and solar systems generate thousands of gigawatt hours of electricity every year, which cannot be used at the moment it is generated and is limited. At other times, missing capacities are replaced with energy from fossil sources. Part of the solution could be large electrothermal storage systems that contribute to grid stability. The basic idea is to convert electricity into heat, to buffer this heat in comparatively inexpensive storage systems and to convert it back into electricity if necessary. “By
