Abstract
This chapter introduces the concept of high-temperature heat and power storage. This technology is on the use of renewable surplus electricity for high-temperature heat storage via simple methods and media, such as molten salt or rocks, so that the stored heat could later be used for power generation by known power cycles. The chapter presents the definitions and various designs of this technology. Then, detailed thermodynamic models of the processes of the system are presented. These models are then used for doing a technoeconomic analysis on a case study where some sorts of quantified results are presented. The chapter is closed with a discussion of the future we expect for the technology from research and market perspectives.
