[IEA Task 43] 2nd Meeting: Standardized use of building mass as storage for renewables and grid flexibility

🤝 Hosted by Aalborg University, the international #Task43 community met for the second time to discuss all things #thermalactivatedbuildingmass on the 2nd and 3rd of October 2023. Besides interesting presentations from industry and academia, the work towards the respective Subtask goals was advanced further to fuel our goal of widespread integration of #TAB #energystorage.

The Energy Storage Technology Collaboration Programme (ES TCP) facilitates integral research, development, implementation, and integration of energy storage technologies such as Electrical Energy Storage, Thermal Energy Storage, Distributed Energy Storage (DES) and borehole Thermal Energy Storage (BTES).

The Sustainable Building Design Lab at Liege University in Belgium, together with Southwest Jiaotong University in China, will join Subtask D to help:

✅ Develop KPIs for evaluating and benchmarking thermally activated building thermal mass storage focusing on Phase Change Materials.
✅ Establish generalized guidelines for constructing and controlling thermal-activated building mass storage as a reference for future planning and operation of thermal-activated systems.
✅ Collect a representative sample of best practice implementations of thermal-activated thermal building mass storage in uniform Technical Sheets.
