'Energy storage' is too often understood to comprise only electricity storage.

The heating sector needs to be electrified anyway, so why not use to convert wind&solar power to heat (or resistors for 'excess' power), and store it in thermal like boreholes, caverns, pits or aquifiers?

That's cheaper in regions, where space heating represents a significant share of energy consumption and is used.

50-60% share does not significantly increase extreme events in local spot market prices.

AND

The geek in me emphasises that the sectorsโ€™ -to-heat capacity has gone from an innovative idea in the early 2000โ€™s, to actual 100s of MWs contribution to the integration of wind power. Along with interconnectors and the flexible fleet of Danish power plants.

Two of the findings from our recent wind integration study.

Using for heating may sound attractive at first glance. However, all of the independent research on this topic comes to the same conclusion: heating with hydrogen is a lot less efficient and more expensive than alternatives such as , and such as .
