John Olav Tande, centre director for NOWITECH, was interviewed for the Tecnalia Perspectives 2016-conference.

You can see the whole interview here, where he adresses:

  • The situation in Nordic Countries related to the Marine Energy Opportunities? Which initiatives have been arisen in Norway?
  •  The evolution from Oil & Gas Industry to Offshore Wind Energy Industry?
  •  At this moment, which are the technological challenges that offshore wind energy faces?
  • Is HVDC is a future technology for an efficient energy evacuation from offshore wind farms? Is it a business opportunity?

Infographic showing the flow of thermal energy storage (TES) from surplus heat or cold to end users. On the left, red and blue thermometer icons represent surplus heat and cooling, accompanied by the text “Surplus heat or cold – Captured and stored for when it’s needed.” In the centre, a large panel titled “Thermal Energy Storage (TES)” presents three storage technologies. The top section, “Sensible TES,” shows a container with a thermometer and the text “Stores heat in one single phase.” The middle section, “Latent TES,” shows a water droplet and snowflake connected by circular arrows, with the text “Stores heat through phase change.” The bottom section, “Thermochemical TES,” shows two connected coloured circles that separate and reconnect, illustrating a reversible reaction, with the text “Stores heat through reversible reactions.” A large pale arrow-shaped wedge points from the TES panel toward the right side of the figure. On the right, three application areas are shown in separate boxes with icons: industrial processes, buildings, and data centres. The layout conveys that surplus heat or cold can be stored using sensible, latent, or thermochemical TES technologies and later supplied to industrial facilities, buildings, and data centres.

Thermal energy storage is already commercial
