Aquifer thermal storage can be divided into two types: high-temperature aquifer thermal storage and conventional aquifer thermal storage. In comparison with conventional ATES, high-temperature aquifer thermal energy storage (HT-ATES) can significantly enhance the capacity, storage temperature, and efficiency of renewable energy sources (RES) [25].
solar energy shows seasonally (summer-winter), daily (day-night) and hourly (clouds) variations. Thermal energy storage (TES) systems correct this mismatch between the supply and the demand of thermal energy. Hence, TES is a key cross-sectional technology for utilization of volatile renewable sources (e.g. wind and photovoltaics) and energy efficiency improvements
Generally speaking, seasonal thermal energy storage can be used by storing summer heat for winter use or storing winter cold for summer use, i.e., summer heat for winter use and winter cold for summer use. Common seasonal heat storage includes seasonal sensible heat storage, seasonal latent heat storage, and seasonal thermochemical heat storage
Application of seasonal thermal energy storage with heat pumps for heating and cooling buildings has received much consideration in recent decades, as it can help to cover
Section 2 delivers insights into the mechanism of TES and classifications based on temperature, period and storage media. TES materials, typically PCMs, lack thermal conductivity, which slows down the energy storage and retrieval rate. There are other issues with PCMs for instance, inorganic PCMs (hydrated salts) depict supercooling, corrosion, thermal
Storage systems for medium and high temperatures are an emerging option to improve the energy efficiency of power plants and industrial facilities. Reflecting the wide area of applications in the temperature range from 100 °C to 1200 °C, a
Lithium plating is a specific effect that occurs on the surface of graphite and other carbon-based anodes, which leads to the loss of capacity at low temperatures. High temperature conditions accelerate the thermal aging and may shorten the lifetime of LIBs. Heat generation within the batteries is another considerable factor at high

AHR affects water vapor and the surface energy balance in Europe, which impacts on European summer heatwaves further. AHR acts as a non-negligible factor for summer extreme high temperature in Europe and a potential factor impacting EHW days. Anthropogenic heat release (AHR) is the release of heat generated by anthropogenic energy consumption.
Waste or excess heat generally produced in the summer when heating demand is low can be stored for periods of up to 6 months. The stored heat can then be re-introduced
Seasonal storage is defined as the ability to store energy for days, weeks or months to compensate for a longer term supply disruption or seasonal variability on the supply and demand sides of the energy system (e.g., storing heat in the summer for use in the winter via underground thermal energy storage systems) .

Seasonal thermal energy storage (STES), Warm-temperature seasonal heat stores can be created using borehole fields to store surplus heat captured in summer to actively raise the temperature of large thermal banks of soil so that heat can be extracted more easily (and more cheaply) in winter. Interseasonal Heat Transfer [15] uses water circulating in pipes embedded
The rising global mean surface temperature (GMST) is a typical sign of climate change. The Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) shows a global temperature rise of 1.2°C in 2020 compared to pre-industrial levels and an increase in the frequency of extreme weather events [].Asphalt pavement is highly sensitive to
The solar share was highly enhanced (theoretically up to 100%) since high-temperature energy storage was proposed, while solar-to-electric efficiency was found in the range of 20–25% for turbine inlet temperature up to 850 °C. Direct integration of the CaL process in Solar Combined Cycles (SCC-TCES) has been recently proposed [14]. In a first conceptual
Waste or excess heat generally produced in the summer when heating demand is low can be stored for periods of up to 6 months. The stored heat can then be re-introduced to heating systems throughout the winter as demand increases, negating some of the requirement to generate new heat and so lowering total energy consumption.

Of all components, thermal storage is a key component. However, it is also one of the less developed. Only a few plants in the world have tested high temperature thermal energy storage systems. In this context, high temperature is considered when storage is performed between 120 and 600 °C.

Revelation of economic competitiveness of STES against existing heating options. Seasonal thermal energy storage (STES) holds great promise for storing summer heat for winter use. It allows renewable resources to meet the seasonal heat demand without resorting to fossil-based back up. This paper presents a techno-economic literature review of STES.
The efficiency of seasonal thermal energy storage combined with a heat pump is evaluated by the solar fraction and the coefficient of performance (COP) of the heat pump. The heat stored in the seasonal storage tank reduces the difference between evaporation and condensation temperatures.
Waste or excess heat generally produced in the summer when heating demand is low can be stored for periods of up to 6 months. The stored heat can then be re-introduced to heating systems throughout the winter as demand increases, negating some of the requirement to generate new heat and so lowering total energy consumption.
This will be achieved by conducting 6 new high temperature (~ 25°C to ~ 90°C) underground heat storage demonstration pilots and 8 case studies of existing heat storage systems with distinct configurations of heat sources, heat storage and heat utilization.
