Can thermochemical energy storage close the energy supply-demand gap?
The thermal energy storage (TES) technology has gained so much popularity in recent years as a practical way to close the energy supply–demand gap. Due to its higher energy storage density and long-term storage, thermochemical energy storage (TCES), one of the TES methods currently in use, seems to be a promising one.
Recently a new trend focusing on thermal systems applied to buildings has emerged. Most of the reviewed articles on thermal storage refer to STES and LTES. PCMs related to thermal energy storage show the highest number of research studies, while thermochemical systems are scarce .
In the case of thermochemical systems, the most studied area focuses on the development of new compounds to achieve the required energy density, high temperature applications in concentrated solar power plants and their application to buildings for seasonal storage.
Thermochemical energy storage (TCES) 4.1. Functioning of TCES TCES employs materials which release or store heat during reversible exothermic and endothermic chemical reactions, involving dissociation or sorption mechanisms .
The integration of energy storage systems with renewable energy technologies represents a critical pathway towards a low‐carbon future. By addressing issues of intermittency and supply–demand imbalance, these systems allow for flexible management of energy flows and enhanced grid. . Breakthroughs in battery technology are transforming the global energy landscape, fueling the transition to clean energy and reshaping industries from transportation to utilities. US companies have built an early lead in electrochemical LDS—but we lag East Asia in research and IP. Our long-term advantage depends on reducing manufacturing costs so we can efficiently build battery modules at scale.

In May 2024, Tuvalu completed its first large-scale solar farm and a two-megawatt-hour battery storage system on its main island, Funafuti. Spanning several hectares of land and rooftop and utilizing advanced photovoltaic technology, the project significantly reduces Funafuti's diesel dependency and improves energy reliability.
One of Tuvalu's most pressing economic challenges is its dependence on imported fossil fuels. In 2021, 96% of Tuvalu's energy came from imported fossil fuels, which consumed more than 70% of the nation's budget.
Despite some ocean economic activity, Tuvalu relies heavily on international aid to meet its basic needs, like water, sanitation, transportation, energy and health care. One of Tuvalu's most pressing economic challenges is its dependence on imported fossil fuels.
During the 2009 Conference of the Parties (COP15), Tuvalu's President Feleti Teo highlighted this cost: “Oil prices in Tuvalu will keep on rising even above the current levels of 3-400% above world pricesthis is simply unrealistic and unsustainable for our poor islands.”
