Dual Media Thermocline (DMT) techno-economic interest for heat storage on the range 80°C –600°C – The SMARTREC project

The economic assessment of a sensible heat storage system, the Dual Media Thermocline (DMT), is estimated for an industrial application of waste heat storage on the range of temperature 80°C to 600°C. The DMT is a main component of the standard and modular system developed in the frame of the H2020 Smartrec project (GA n° 723838). Further, the life cycle assessment (LCA) of the 1MWh Smartrec system is studied.
