A super-large buried vacuum thermal energy storage library structure
By employing a multi-level vacuum insulation design and a gradient thermal storage zoning layout in a giant underground vacuum thermal energy storage facility, the problems of small capacity, poor insulation, and high cost of traditional energy storage devices have been solved. This has enabled efficient and stable cross-seasonal energy storage and supply, while reducing environmental pollution.
