About Project
Store Electricity and Heat foR climatE Neutral Europe (SEHRENE) is an EU-funded project developing an innovative Electro-Thermal Energy Storage (ETES) solution. It enables efficient, sustainable, and long-duration management of industrial waste heat, renewable heat and electricity. The project focuses on designing an integrated, high-performance ETES concept that maximizes efficiency while ensuring economic viability and environmental sustainability.
Frequently Asked Questions
The DSS is an integrated tool for evaluating ETES systems through thermodynamic, economic, and environmental analyses. It assesses thermal performance, estimates key economic indicators such as LCOS, payback period, and NPV, and evaluates environmental impacts using Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) metrics, including carbon footprint and resource depletion. By integrating these aspects, the DSS supports data-driven comparison of ETES with SoA energy storage alternatives from techno- economic and environmental perspectives, thereby supporting informed investment and feasibility decisions.
