The report says that worldwide, the need for sustainable energy solutions, wherein renewable energy and thermal energy storage technologies are important elements, is boosting the demand for thermal energy storage systems. Molten salt TES systems can be installed in buildings, districts, and towns, wherein energy generated can be conserved for future use. With the utilization of molten salt TES systems, the dependency on conventional energy sources reduces substantially and optimum efficiency of energy systems is attained, which in turn helps fill the demand-supply gap in the energy sector.

Molten salt thermal energy storage will also curb energy demand and energy consumption by end users, thereby curbing carbon dioxide emissions. In the future, it is expected that the utilization of molten salt TES systems will increase the share of renewable energy in the overall power generation scenario, especially benefiting the wind and solar energy markets. For example, concentrating solar power (CSP) units are now installing thermal energy storage technologies such as molten salt, wherein stored energy is stored to provide electricity in the absence of sunlight.

Currently, the molten salt TES market is on a fast growth trajectory due to the high reliability, high performance, and optimized cost of these systems. The use of the technology for the purpose of storing energy is suitable for a myriad end uses, which ranges from centralized energy distribution units in industries to district heating and cooling systems to power plants to energy distribution systems in residential and commercial buildings, and more.

The output of a thermal energy storage system, such as the molten salt one, is dependent on the number of users, applicability, operational needs, and the nature of the storage cycle.In order to bridge the energy supply and demand gap and to ensure electricity supply in off-grid areas, economies around the world are displaying an inclination towards the adoption of thermal energy storage technology, such as molten salt.


Apart from North America and Europe, which already have TES systems in place in large numbers, the developing economies of Asia Pacific, the Middle East, and Africa also have high potential for the adoption of these technologies. In developing economies, the low construction cost of these units and high potential of the real estate sector will accentuate the growth of the molten salt TES market.Europe, led by Spain, was the largest market for molten salt TES market in 2014, with this hierarchy expected to continue in the next few years.

Thermal energy storage projects enable storage of renewable energy, especially solar energy. They are widely regarded as the future of the renewable energy scenario because of their various benefits. A thermal storage system allows a solar power plant to optimize the electricity load profile and meet specific market needs even after the sun goes down. Nowadays, energy demands are effectively managed through the utilization of global molten salt thermal energy storage market.

TES Systems May Provide Half-Price Grid Energy Storage in Coming Years

Molten salt thermal energy storage systems are capable of replacing coal or oil-based resources with cheaper and cost-effective storage systems that could enable power grids to accommodate large amounts of renewable energy. These systems have the ability to optimize the overall efficiency of energy systems and balance the fluctuating demand from the power generation industry. Due to these characteristics, molten salt energy storage systems could cut the price of grid electricity by up to 50% in the coming years.

Unlike the operating parabolic troughs plants, which utilize synthetic aromatic fluid to attain temperatures higher than 400ÂșC and become inoperable at that temperature, molten salt, which is used as a heat storage medium, can be used as a working fluid with more allowance for high temperatures. Using molten salt as a medium of heat transfer fluid enables a new plant configuration, which can lead to greater savings at different levels of industrial operation.


Diverse Applicability of Molten Salt TES Systems Benefits Global Market

The performance of molten salt thermal energy storage systems depends on the operational needs, applicability, number of users, and number and frequency of the storage cycle. TES systems are becoming an integral part of electricity storage in concentrated solar power (CSP) plants. They are used particularly in buildings and industrial processes, and can help reduce CO2 emissions and energy consumption and costs, while increasing the overall efficiency of the energy systems. Molten salt thermal energy storage (TES) systems are suitable for a variety of applications in the renewable energy industry. Solar power plants using parabolic trough or power tower technology, back-up heating systems for HTF (hot oil or molten salt), and initial nitrate systems responsible for supply and handling of the nitrates are some of the key applications of TES systems market.

Leading Market Players Continue their Research on Solar Power with Molten Salt Storage

Key players such as AREVA, Siemens AG, Abengoa Solar S.A., and Pratt & Whitney Rocketdyne Inc. are continuously making efforts to build pilot electricity storage systems that use molten salt. Halotechnics, a startup in California, has built a pilot-scale energy storage system that provides a cost-effective and practical way of storing large amounts of electricity. Halotechnics TES systems cost half as much as battery storage and offer the cheapest way of storing large amounts of electricity.

Similarly, a team of Sandia National Laboratories, in collaboration with AREVA, designed a 100-foot-tall structure and compact linear Fresnel reflectors to collect and store thermal energy in molten salt.
