Dansk deltagelse i IEA IES Task 44 - Power-to-Heat og varmeintegrerede Carnot-batterier for nul-kulstof (industriel) varmeforsyning

The project focuses on “Power-to-Heat and Heat Integrated Carnot Batteries for Zero Carbon (industrial) heat supply”, a critical area of investigation for advancing sustainable and resilient energy systems with a very high security of supply. The primary goal is to evaluate and illuminate the role of storage supported power-to-heat and heat-integrated Carnot batteries in the energy transition. 

This task aims to create a common understanding of the potential of these technologies in the industry and policy domain. It will involve a comprehensive examination of the technologies, including modelling and simulation, technology reviews, use-case identification and classification, mapping technologies with use cases, developing roadmaps and policies, and dissemination of findings. 

The task is divided into six subtasks: 

1. Modelling and Simulation 
2. Technology review 
3. Use case identification & Classification 
4. Mapping Technologies with use cases / Market Opportunities 
5. Roadmap and Policies 
6. Dissemination. 

Our participation in this task aligns with Denmark’s strategic objectives of transitioning to a zero-carbon energy system, while retaining a very high security of supply, and we anticipate that our active involvement in the task will facilitate technology transfer, foster collaborations, and spur innovation in the Danish energy sector.
