As previously reported in Modern Power Systems (Nov/December 2021, pp 31-33), one novel concept for repurposing coal-fired power plants is turning them into thermal energy storage facilities, a concept under development by E2S Power. . The United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has confirmed that continued greenhouse gas emissions, particularly from thermoelectric power plants, will accelerate global warming. The consequences of this include extreme weather events such as heavy rainfall, floods, severe. . Thermal energy storage is a feasible technology to improve the flexibility of coal-fired power plants. This article provides a review of the research on the flexibility transformation of coal-fired power plants based on heat storage technology, mainly including medium to low-temperature heat. . Well-established battery energy storage technology provides one viable approach to repowering coal plants. In the same time frame as the projected coal retirements, large-scale intermittent renewable resources are expected to expand greatly, creating a parallel need for large-scale energy storage. The proposed capacity expansion model considers the co-locations of DCs, local renewable genera-tion, and energy storage with the system-level coal. . As coal consumption surges amid energy market turmoil, global efforts to slash the use of the most polluting fossil fuel by 2050 appear increasingly challenged.
