Nitrite salt, used to store heat energy in the Malta concept of thermal energy storage. While the concept of storing thermal energy in molten salt has been around for decades, a new approach - from one of Google''s sister companies - combines hot energy with cold to create a temperature difference that can be utilised to generate power.
Clean, co-generated steam is used for district heating or industrial use. Malta's electro-thermal energy storage system is composed using components with a long and proven record in the field. Molten salt is the most mature technology used in thermal storage.
Malta's electro-thermal energy storage system is built upon well-established principles in thermodynamics. When charging (taking electricity from the grid) the system converts electricity to heat, in molten salt, and as cold in a chilled liquid. In these forms, this energy can be efficiently stored for long durations.
The Malta PHES energy storage system is built upon well-established principles in thermodynamics and uses conventional components that have been present in power plants for hundreds of years. Electricity from the grid is used to heat molten salt and cool a chilled liquid. In these forms, energy can be efficiently stored for long durations.
Malta is built on research conducted by a Nobel Prize-winning physics professor, who came up with a theoretical system that stores electricity as heat in high temperature molten salt and cold in a low temperature liquid similar to the antifreeze in cars. The energy stored in the system can be kept for days or even weeks, until it’s needed.
Malta’s utility scale and inertial component make it uniquely suited for power companies with a focus on resiliency ready to move to long duration today. When coupled with renewables, Malta’s thermo-electric energy storage system enables the delivery of 24/7 green energy. Stores energy from any power generation source
When discharging (injecting electricity into the grid) the system operates as a heat engine, combining the stored heat and cold together to generate electricity. Because a heat engine is driven by a change in temperature (T) the extraction of cold as well as heat makes the Malta system more efficient than other technologies.
