Thermochemical energy storage of concentrated solar power by integration of the calcium looping process and a CO2 power cycle
Ricardo Chacartegui,A. Alovisio,A. Alovisio,C. Ortiz,Jose Manuel Valverde,Vittorio Verda,J.A. Becerra +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the use of the CaL process to store Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) and proposed a CSP-CaL integration scheme, which is characterized by a CO 2 closed loop for the Ca-Looping cycle and power production, which provides heat decoupled from the solar source and temperatures well above the ∼550°C limit.

The Calcium-Looping (CaCO3/CaO) process for thermochemical energy storage in Concentrating Solar Power plants
TL;DR: In this article, a detailed review about the promising integration of a CaCO3/CaO based system, the so-called Calcium-Looping (CaL) process, in CSP plants with tower technology is carried out.

Optimizing the CSP-Calcium Looping integration for Thermochemical Energy Storage
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored several configurations in order to maximize the performance of the CSP-CaL integration with the focus on power cycle integration in the carbonator zone.

Power cycles integration in concentrated solar power plants with energy storage based on calcium looping
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the integration into concentrated solar power plants of the calcium looping process based upon the reversible carbonation/calcination of calcium oxide for thermochemical energy storage.

High-performance and low-cost macroporous calcium oxide based materials for thermochemical energy storage in concentrated solar power plants
Pedro Jiménez,Antonio Perejón,Mónica Benítez Guerrero,Jose Manuel Valverde,C. Ortiz,Luis Allan Pérez Maqueda +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors have prepared acicular calcium and magnesium acetate precursors using a simple, cost-effective and easily scalable technique that requires just the natural minerals and acetic acid, thereby avoiding expensive reactants and environmentally unfriendly solvents.
