Expert workshop on thermal energy storage systems
Abstract
Date: 28-29 June 2010
Location: Berlin, Germany
Experts from various scientific fields and industry will meet in Berlin on 28 and 29 June 2010 to discuss the potential and limits for increasing the energy storage density. Project Management Jülich and the German Research Foundation (DFG) are organising this workshop in order to present and discuss the latest laboratory findings from fundamental and application-based research in the field of thermal energy storage.
More details
In specific application areas, thermal energy storage systems can help increase energy efficiency. The EnOB research initiative is providing an overview of this application-based research.
