The PUSH-IT project is piloting the implementation of high-temperature thermal energy storage in aquifers, boreholes and mines. Two MTES sites are being assessed, a demonstration site in
Prevention of intake of oxygen into the mine water system is a key for a durable operation of the storage system. Otherwise a rapid precipitation of iron minerals (i.e. ferrihydrite) may occur.
Abandoned underground mines offer a sustainable energy source, but technical challenges remain Water in abandoned underground mines have significant potential for geothermal energy extraction
Accordingly, the present research for the first time offers a novel solution to achieve full decarbonization of mine power system by integrating a multi-storage (Battery/Fuel Cell/Thermal Storage) and
Their large-scale energy storage solution uses retired mines or quarries and turns them into circular energy storage facilities.
Therefore, this article presents a concept for utilizing high-temperature sand-based heat storage systems built in decommissioned underground mining excavations.
The aim of the German HEATSTORE sub-project has been the development of a mine thermal energy storage (MTES) pilot plant for the energetic reuse of an abandoned small colliery
The concept of this pilot plant aims at the reutilization of an abandoned small coal mine, which is directly located under the premises of the International Geothermal Centre (GZB) in Bochum (Figure 1), as a
