- 1 Intro
- 2 Global energy and water demand are projected to increase significantly
- 3 Understanding the water - energy nexus
- 4 Heat is the dominant form of energy use in the buildings sector
- 5 Renewable electrification is promising for decarbonization, but there is a mismatch
- 6 Thermal batteries (energy storage) can be used to decarbonize heat
- 7 Thermochemical energy storage in buildings
- 8 Limitations of salt hydrates include material instability during hygrothermal cycling
- 9 Particle size of the salt has an impact on the reaction kinetics
- 10 Dehydration and hydration kinetics are also influenced by the porosity of the salt
- 11 Composite materials can overcome inherent limitations of pristine salts
- 12 Beyond operational energy use in buildings, embodied carbon is also a concern
