Commissioning involves testing and functional verification of all components and instruments, and to bring the TES to operational status.

In an interview with the German daily, Die Welt, prominent physicist Dr. Eicke Weber called for stepping up the construction of wind and solar power plants in places where energy is needed.

New fossil-fuel reserve power plants to secure the energy transition are expected to come on line by 2018, according to a report in the 11 November 2016 issue of the magazine Capital.

Introducing a new storage technology to the market has its challenges, but the simpler the technology is, the easier and quicker challenges can be overcome.

Crowdfunding is certainly not new and in the headlines since quite some time. Even Elon Musk is doing it – so it must be the next big thing.

Industrial operations require significant energy, with large amounts of this energy disappearing as as waste heat after use.

Masdar Institute of Science & Technology and EnergyNest AS initiated a comprehensive joint research project in 2013 for the building and testing a 2 x 500 kWhth EnergyNest-type Thermal Energy Storage (TES) pilot.
