Seasonal Thermal Storage for Scotland
Date: 26th Setpember 2018
Location: Edinburgh
Seasonal Thermal Storage (STS) projects and technologies are allowing regions to decarbonise their heating by allowing heat to be collected during the summer, stored, and then used in the winter when peak heat demand occurs. STS projects are successfully up and running in several countries but not yet in Scotland.
Alistair Mccay of ETP aims to use this event to introduce the concept of STS, how it can add value to local and national energy systems, and the technologies involved. There will be presentations from experts who have been delivering STS projects in North West Europe, and who have been appraising the potential of STS to best be integrated into energy systems in Scotland.
