Thermal storage captures solar energy as heat rather than electricity. What Is Energy Storage? “Storage” refers to technologies that. . Thermal energy storage (TES) units, also called thermal batteries, use grid or onsite electricity to generate and store heat in a medium or in chemical bonds. They can charge when low-cost electricity is available during off-peak times to store heat for later consumption, up to multiple days later.
