Seasonal thermal energy storage: A techno-economic literature review
Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2021 Seasonal thermal energy storage (STES) holds great promise for storing summer heat for winter use. It allows renewable resources to meet the seasonal heat demand without resorting to fossil-based back up. This paper presents a techno-economic literature review of STES. Six STES technologies are reviewed and an overview of the representative projects is
