NREL：2024在役核电站熔盐热能储罐失效分析报告（英文版）

Thermal energy storage (TES) is a fundamental component in concentrating solar power (CSP) plants to increase the plant’s dispatchability and capacity factor while reducing the levelized cost of electricity. In central receiver CSP plants, nitrate molten salts have been used for several years for operation temperatures of up to 565°C, which is currently considered the state-of-the-art. This report focuses on tank design and performance at the current state-of-the-art temperature of 565°C. Alt
