Seasonal thermal energy storage

2022, Encyclopedia of Energy Storage: Volume 1-4Performance analysis of Aquifer Thermal Energy Storage (ATES)
2020, Renewable EnergyCitation Excerpt :This is in particular the case for the summer season, where constant lower abstraction temperatures can significantly increase the efficiency of the cooling system [23]. While about 90% of all LT-ATES systems are operated in the Netherlands, the share of LT-ATES on the global number of open shallow geothermal systems is still fairly low [85]. Thus, in order to promote ATES technology worldwide, it is crucial to analyse also the economic and technical advantage of LT-ATES compared to GWHP systems.
Ground environment characteristics during the operation of GWHP considering the particle deposition effect
2020, Energy and BuildingsCitation Excerpt :The recharge of groundwater may involve various physical, chemical, and biological particles [4,6]. After long-term operation, these particles can change the ground environment characteristics (e.g., the porosity and hydraulic conductivity) [7], and even block flow pathways into the ground [8,9]. Changing the ground environment can lead to a series of problems, including groundwater pollution and ground deformation, and can lead to a reduction in the GWHP operation efficiency [10,11].
Potential impact of hydrodynamic shear force in aquifer thermal energy storage on dissolved organic matter releasement: A vigorous shaking batch study
2019, Science of the Total EnvironmentCitation Excerpt :By now, most of the research related to the combined concept have mainly focused on the temperature effect of ATES (Bakr et al., 2013; Bonte et al., 2013; Zuurbier et al., 2013; Bonte et al., 2014; Ni et al., 2015), while limited attention has been paid to the flow and mixing impact of ATES, especially on the subsurface chemistry. With a typical ATES with a flow rate of 100 m3/h, the groundwater velocity can be enhanced dramatically, and reach up to few meters per hour (Dickinson et al., 2009; Lee, 2013; Snijders and Drijver, 2016). The closer to the ATES well filter, the higher groundwater velocity it is, due to the radial outflow from the well.

An aquifer is a subsurface geologic feature that is capable to yield large quantities of water (eg, a layer of sand, gravel, sandstone or fractured rock).
