6 FAQs about [Heat storage Malta]

How does energy storage work in Malta?

Malta’s innovative long-duration energy storage technology stores electricity as thermal energy from eight hours to eight days or longer, later returning it to the grid to meet hourly, daily, and weekly needs.

What is electro-thermal energy storage in Malta?

Malta's electro-thermal energy storage system is built upon well-established principles in thermodynamics. When charging (taking electricity from the grid) the system converts electricity to heat, in molten salt, and as cold in a chilled liquid. In these forms, this energy can be efficiently stored for long durations.

Is Malta the first company to commercialize a thermoelectric energy storage system?

Christian Bruch, President and CEO of Siemens Energy, said, “ Malta’s innovative thermoelectric energy storage system offers a flexible, cost-effective and scalable solution for the storage of energy over long periods of time. With our support, Malta is well positioned to be the first company to commercialize such a solution globally.

What is the Malta PHES energy storage system?

The Malta PHES energy storage system is built upon well-established principles in thermodynamics and uses conventional components that have been present in power plants for hundreds of years. Electricity from the grid is used to heat molten salt and cool a chilled liquid. In these forms, energy can be efficiently stored for long durations.
