The industrial sector''s primary energy requirement is thermal energy; therefore, thermal storage could be an integral technology that can reduce carbon emissions, help the industrial sector better integrate into the U.S. electric grid, and ultimately reduce overall energy costs.
This study reviews chemical and thermal energy storage technologies, focusing on how they integrate with renewable energy sources, industrial applications, and emerging challenges.
Thermal energy storage for augmenting existing industrial process heat applications makes a much more attractive economic case because the energy penalty due to thermal-to-electric conversion is eliminated.

Thermal energy storage systems reveal even greater diversity in terms of temperature range, material costs, and industrial compatibility.
Thermal energy storage in buildings can be used to adjust the timing of electricity demand to better match intermittent supply and to satisfy distribution constraints. TES for building heating and cooling applications predominantly utilizes sensible and latent heat technologies at low temperatures (i.e., near room temperature).
Energy storage is used to facilitate the integration of renewable energy in buildings and to provide a variable load for the consumer. TESS is a reasonably commonly used for buildings and communities to when connected with the heating and cooling systems.
The applications of energy storage systems have been reviewed in the last section of this paper including general applications, energy utility applications, renewable energy utilization, buildings and communities, and transportation. Finally, recent developments in energy storage systems and some associated research avenues have been discussed.
Another promising method is solid-state thermal storage, also known as Magaldi Green Thermal Energy Storage (MGTES). This method utilizes fluidized sand beds as the heat storage medium [80, 81]. Sand is an excellent TES material due to its high thermal stability, low cost, and environmental sustainability.
