Integrating Thermal Energy Storage into Carbon Capture Systems
Carbon capture systems are essential for reducing emissions but are hindered by their high energy demands. Thermal Energy Storage (TES) offers a solution by storing heat from renewable energy or industrial processes and supplying it to carbon capture systems, improving efficiency and sustainability. This presentation will explore TES technologies like molten salt, phase-change materials, and thermochemical storage, highlighting their role in powering energy-intensive stages such as solvent regeneration. Strategies for integrating TES with power plants and industrial facilities will be discussed, along with the environmental and operational benefits of reduced fossil fuel reliance. Attendees will learn how TES can enhance carbon capture performance and support decarbonization goals.
