In order to overcome this challenge, energy storage systems and new control strategies are needed to smooth the fluctuations of solar energy and ensure consistent cooling output. However, integrating energy storage with solar cooling systems and their interaction with load requires a considerable initial investment.
A solar-based cooling system uses solar energy, in the form of heat or electricity, to provide cooling for air conditioning and/or refrigeration. The energy from the sun is captured using solar photovoltaic (PV) and transformed into electricity to drive vapor compression AC systems.
As technology advances and economies of scale come into play, liquid-cooled energy storage battery systems are likely to become increasingly prevalent, reshaping the landscape of energy storage and contributing to a more sustainable and resilient energy future.
Liquid-cooled energy storage systems are particularly advantageous in conjunction with renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind. The ability to efficiently manage temperature fluctuations ensures that the batteries seamlessly integrate with the intermittent nature of these renewable sources.
While cold energy can be stored when excess solar energy leads to extra generation of cold energy from the chiller. The stored cold energy can be discharged to cover part of the cooling demand. Both cold and hot storage can be in the form of sensible or latent heat.
The deployment of solar-based thermal cooling systems is limited to available solar radiation hours. The intermittent of solar energy creates a mismatch between cooling needs and available energy supply. Energy storage is, therefore, necessary to minimize the mismatch and achieve extended cooling coverage from solar-driven cooling systems.
