Description
Summary:The thermal energy storage (TES) system is an important component of the gas district cooling GDC plant. It is specifically incorporated to the GDC plant to improve the operations and efficiency of the plant. This strategy is fitting as GDC plant is a cogeneration plant. Besides improving the cogeneration plant operations, TES also assist in shifting the energy and improving energy supply reliability as reported by Dincer et al.1 and Karim.2 Specifically for the GDC plant the TES is for cooling purpose.
