Thermal Energy Storage Patents
medium, such as liquid salt, as the storage medium. The salt is heated
electrically by grid power and then used to make steam for integration
with a gas turbine in a Liquid Salt Combined Cycle™ (LSSC).

Cryogenic Energy Storage Patents
Cryogenic Energy Storage uses liquid air as the storage medium. Liquid air is produced by proven industrial processes and can be safely stored with low losses. Liquid air can provide tens of Gigawatt-hours, larger than Pumped Storage Hydro, on a compact footprint suitable for a metropolitan area. The Liquid Air Combined Cycle™ (LACC) is an example of a hybrid cryogenic energy storage system.
