Cold thermal energy storage (CTES) is a technology that relies on storing thermal energy at a time of low demand for refrigeration and then using this energy at peak hours to help reduce the electricity consumption of the refrigeration system. Figure 2 shows the principle of operation for a refrigeration system with and without thermal energy
These challenges triggered an interest in developing the concept of cold thermal energy storage, which can be used to recover the waste cold energy, enhance the performance of refrigeration systems, and improve renewable energy integration.

A solar-driven chemisorption refrigeration/cold energy storage system is proposed.. Chemisorption refrigeration and sorption energy storage are coupled together. • The system can efficiently operate at a hot water temperature of above 70 °C.. Cooling capacity can be changed by adjusting the number of reactors in operation.
The cold storage process can be realized through free or cheap cold sources. • The cold energy storage unit can reduce energy consumption of space cooling. • The cold energy storage unit has a short charging time and a long discharging time. • The cold-release efficiency of the cold energy storage unit is as high as 96.44 %.
The hot- and cold-temperature regions are separated by a temperature gradient or thermocline. High-temperature heat-transfer fluid flows into the top of the thermocline and exits the bottom at low temperature. This process moves the thermocline downward and adds thermal energy to the system for storage.
Thermal energy storage (TES, i.e., heat and cold storage) stores thermal energy in materials via temperature change (e.g., molten salt), phase change (e.g.,

The hot and cold store of an ideal pumped thermal energy storage system require the same thermal mass. Exergy loss by heat transfer from the periphery of the cold store is manageable to a reasonably low level (10 kW) with 1 m of insulation even with increased surface heat transfer rates that may be expected if the store is submerged
Therefore, in addition to merely improving the system efficiency, the energy mismatch issue should be judiciously resolved. Qi et al.

The use of chilled water and encapsulated ice has long been considered to be the most practical form of storage.
