In pumped-heat electricity storage (PHES), a reversible heat-pump system is used to store energy as a temperature difference between two heat stores. Isentropic systems involve two insulated containers filled, for example, with crushed rock or gravel: a hot vessel storing thermal energy at high temperature/pressure, and a cold vessel storing thermal energy at low temperature/pressure. The vessels are connected at top and bottom by pipes and the whole syste

A Thermal Energy Storage System (TESS) captures and holds thermal energy—either heat or cold—until it is needed. Acting as a thermal battery, TESS decouples the moment energy is collected

Usage examples are the balancing of energy demand between day and night time, storing summer heat for winter heating, or winter cold for summer air conditioning (seasonal thermal energy storage).
