The invention belongs to the field of
energy storage, and particularly relates to an
energy storage system and method based on a
silicon-based ultrahigh-temperature
phase change heat storage
coupling gas
turbine. The
system comprises a
silicon-based ultra-high-temperature heat storage device, an outlet of the
silicon-based ultra-high-temperature heat storage device is connected with an ultra-high-temperature heat
recovery device, an outlet of the ultra-high-temperature heat
recovery device is connected with a circulating fan and a
combustion chamber, and the circulating fan is connected with an inlet of the silicon-based ultra-high-temperature heat storage device; an outlet of the
combustion chamber is connected with a gas
turbine, the gas
turbine is connected with a
gas compressor, and the
gas compressor is connected with an inlet of the ultra-high-temperature heat
recovery device; an outlet of the gas turbine is connected with a
waste heat boiler, and an outlet of the
waste heat boiler is connected with a feed
water heater and a
steam turbine. The ultrahigh-temperature phase-change heat storage device with the silicon-based phase-change material as the heat storage medium is adopted,
electric energy is converted into high-grade
heat energy to be stored, and the efficient
electricity-heat-
electricity energy storage round-trip efficiency can be achieved and can reach 60% through an existing gas-steam
combined cycle unit. If combined heat and power generation is considered, the
energy storage efficiency can reach 85%.
