Technical FAQs 4

Can coal-fired power plants be retrofitted for grid energy storage?

Grid energy storage is key to the development of renewable energies for addressing the global warming challenge. Although coal-fired power plant has been coupled with thermal energy storage to enhance their operational flexibility, studies on retrofitting coal-fired power plants for grid energy storage is lacking.

Can coal power plants be converted into energy storage and zero-carbon data centers?

This paper investigates a retrofitting strategy that turns coal power plants into thermal energy storage (TES) and zero-carbon data centers (DCs). The proposed capacity expansion model considers the co-locations of DCs, local renewable genera-tion, and energy storage with the system-level coal retirement and retrofitting.

Can liquid CO2 energy storage improve the flexibility of coal-fired power plants?

A novel integration system of liquid CO2 energy storage and coal-fired power plant based on coal drying is proposed to improve the flexibility of coal-fired power plants further.

Can molten salt thermal energy storage be integrated with coal-fired power plants?

Although coal-fired power plant has been coupled with thermal energy storage to enhance their operational flexibility, studies on retrofitting coal-fired power plants for grid energy storage is lacking. In this work, molten salt thermal energy storage is integrated with supercritical coal-fired power plant by replacing the boiler.
