What is thermal energy storage? – 5 benefits you must know

What is thermal energy storage? Thermal energy storage means heating or cooling a medium to use the energy when needed later. In its simplest form, this could mean using a water tank for heat storage, where the water is heated at times when there is a lot of energy, and the energy is then stored in the water for use when energy is less plentiful.
