SPECIAL FEATURES

Durable Pit Thermal Energy Storages Using Functional Geomembranes [PDF]
Flexible energy storages are an essential component for decarbonizing energy infrastructure. Due to storage temperatures of up to 95°C, the geomembranes are exposed to particularly high levels of environmental stress. The predicted lifetime is a fundamental basis for reliable project planning. New research shows that innovative PP-HTR geomembranes significantly outperform traditional polyethylene (PE)-based geomembranes.
