By Elliot Clark December 12, 2023 3 Mins Read. Thermal energy storage involves heating or cooling a substance to preserve energy for later use. In its simplest form, this process includes heating water during periods of abundant energy, storing it, and later using the stored energy. This utilizes storage options like water, ice-slush-filled ...
