Thermal Energy Storage Myths

Energy Engineering, 2004
ABSTRACT Using thermal energy storage has shifted gigawatts of power off daytime peaks in a cost-effective manner. However, thermal energy storage (TES) market penetration is small in comparison to its potential. Why? In TES' infancy (early 1980s), a small number of manufacturers carefully researched the technology and installed equipment.

Evaluation of Peak Shaving Using Thermal Energy Storage in a Validated CHP and District Energy Model [PDF]

arXiv
There is currently a large federal effort to decarbonize the country's electrical grid as part of the clean energy transition. The elimination of fossil fuel fired systems, and their replacement with intermittent renewable sources and other electric equipment will require better load management techniques to ensure a reliable grid.

Sustained Release of Proteins Using Region‐Specific Tunable Degradability in Hydrogels through 3D Photopatterning and Complimentary Labile Bond Chemistry

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A series of ultraviolet‐ and near‐infrared radiation sensitive photoactivatable hydrogels are developed that can be controlled spatiotemporally down to µm precisions using one‐ and two‐photon uncaging. The latent hydroxylamine‐, hydrazine‐, and amine uncaged moieties are used to photopattern a series of diverse proteins displaying complimentary ...
