Høje Taastrup (Greater Copenhagen)
VEKS (municipality-owned heat transmission company) and HTF (consumer-owned heat distribution company) have implemented a Pit Thermal Energy Storage (PTES) in Høje Taastrup to provide flexibility to the electricity
Why Energy Storage?
Thermal Energy storage. Thermal energy storage comes from storing energy from renewable energies in the form of heat, which in then can be used in district heating systems or be re-converted to electricity through a turbine. The heat
