ComBioTES final event recap: Innovation in thermal energy storage

On 29 October, the ComBioTES project held its final event in a hybrid format, both online and on-site at DTU. Participants joined us to explore the project’s final results and discuss the future of thermal energy storage solutions.

It was a highly engaging session, focused on phase change material (PCM) thermal energy storage (TES) technologies and their potential to improve energy efficiency in domestic heating and domestic hot water systems.
