Our two colleagues from the Fraunhofer Institute for Chemical Technology ICT also presented within the "Energy Exchange and Storage" session. Christian Teicht, who also chaired this research section, delivered a lecture titled "Calorimetry of Phase Change Materials (PCM) for Heat Storage Applications." Moritz Walter discussed the NewHeatIntegrated project in his talk, "NewHeatIntegrated - Development and Integration of a Two-Stage Latent Heat Thermal Energy Storage System in the Built Environment," highlighting current results on innovative thermal energy storage solutions for buildings.
The main objective of the NewHeatIntegrated project is to develop an innovative and cost-effective solution for Thermal Energy Storage (TES). The storage concept addressed by the project is based on phase change materials within a specific temperature range and a special heat exchanger design.
