Abstract

Thermal energy storage (TES) systems have been a subject of growing interest due to their potential to address the challenges of intermittent renewable energy sources. In this context, cementitious materials are emerging as a promising TES media because of their relative low cost, good thermal properties and ease of handling. This article presents a comprehensive review of studies exploring the use of cementitious materials, particularly concrete, as sensible heat storage media at varying scales, ranging from laboratory investigations to prototype evaluations. Starting from the different kinds of energy storage systems and applications where concrete has been used as a storage media, this article reviews the important properties which makes them a suitable material for the purpose. Reported observations are discussed and summarised based on concrete mix composition/design, aggregate/addition type, size gradation, etc., and performance of these materials. Finally, different cement-based prototypes are examined highlighting their strengths and weaknesses, and general conclusions are drawn.
