M-TES (Mobile Thermal Energy Storage) technology is explored in this paper for transportation of industrial surplus heat for use in LTDH (low temperature district heating network). LTDH has promising potential in utilizing low grade heat, on the other hand, 20%-50% of industry generated surplus heat is often released to the ambient environment. M-TES is used to match thermal energy supply and demand that occur at different locations and that are shifted in time. In this paper, design of M-TES is conducted, optimization in operating strategies is performed, sensitivity analysis on levelized cost is studied, and environmental impact of CO2 emissions due to transportation is evaluated. The results of the study show an array of transportation means and storage operating strategies under which M-TES is technically, economically and environmentally sound for transportation of industrial surplus heat for use in LTDH network.
