Europe Thermal Energy Storage Market Size, Share & Industry Trends Analysis Report By Technology, By Storage Material, By End-user, By Application, By Country and Growth Forecast, 2022 - 2028
The Europe Thermal Energy Storage Market would witness market growth of 7.6% CAGR during the forecast period (2022-2028).
Concentrated solar power (CSP) is gradually being combined with thermal energy storage systems to provide grid flexibility and reduce performance degradation by generating electricity through dry cooling at lower ambient temperatures. Furthermore, rising environmental awareness, combined with the increased use of thermal energy storage for energy production in green buildings, is a growth-inducing element. Other factors, such as the implementation of favorable government policies to support sustainable infrastructure development and substantial research & innovation activities, are expected to boost the market.
The use of lithium-ion batteries has been a significant advancement in this field. These batteries have a high power density and a long lifespan of 500 deep cycles, which refers to the number of occasions they can be recharged from 20% to full capacity before deteriorating. Electric vehicles, district cooling and heating, and electricity-generating can all benefit from them.
One of the primary factors driving the market's growth is a growing emphasis on the use of sustainable energy resources around the world. The growing need for thermal storage in HVAC technologies for sizable heating and cooling is also boosting the industry forward.
Europe has been applying different thermal energy storage systems in the metropolitan areas of countries such as Austria, Spain, and other Northern and Central European countries. The high energy use during the winter months and the exploration of renewable district heating methods are the main drivers for such a strategic step.
To accommodate the ever-increasing annual and short-term storage demand, the region has scheduled far more large-scale thermal storage projects, the majority of which will use molten salt technology and subsurface hot water tanks. They'll likely act as multifunctional energy centers for future regional heating sources and another usage.
Thermal energy storage systems, which are used for space heating, heat water, district heating systems, and power generating, are abundant in the region. Due to the vast number of development TES projects across the country, along with the presence of key players like Abengoa Solar, Spain is the biggest contributor to regional market growth.
For Example, Vantaa Energy, announced intentions to build a seasonally thermal energy storage plant in Vantaa, Finland, in July 2021. Hot water tunnels roughly 60 metres below in bedrock will be part of the 90GWh million cubic metre storage plant. The project is expected to be completed in 2026, according to the business and its project partners AFRY and YIT.
