THUMBS UP aimsto develop and demonstrate thermal energy storage (TES) at daily (based on environmental friendly PCM) and weekly level (based on TCM sorption technology) solutions to be easily integrated in EU buildings (both connected and not-connected to DHN) to increase their energy efficiency as well as to exploit Power-to-Heat (PtH) approaches also to make EU Buildings as grid flexibility actors. THUMBS UP wants to overcome all the limits of state-of-the-art building-integrated PCM and TCM TES technologies, increasing TES energy density and reducing CAPEX. THUMBS UP innovates at different levels, from modelling to materials and enhance heat exchanger solutions, targeting demonstration at TRL 7. High-performance TES solutions part of an EU sustainable economy is a factor at the core of THUMBS UP. The project develops truly i) bio-based PCMs from raw materials currently wasted in the EU food industry, turning them into valuable TES materials and ii) TCMs relying exclusively on non-hazardous materials and on water as working fluid. THUMBS UP TES will be demonstrated in 3 demosites (a single-family building in Spain and 2 multi-family buildings in Sweden/ Spain) in different EU climates and energy market contexts also to assess THUMBS UP replication potential in two replication sites (ITA, NL). Via its demonstration and replication campaign, THUMBS UP promotes TES role as key enabling technology to optimize thermal comfort and energy efficiency in buildings as well as to promote PtH as facilitator of RES grid integration in a sector coupling approach, to be studied via innovative modelling tools. THUMBS UP gives specific attention to how to fully integrate TES solutions into buildings and widersmart energy networks by combining the technology advancements with TES-tailored digital innovations. THUMBS UP widens the capability to control, monitor and forecasts how to operate building-integrated TES systems to provide services toward both the H&C and power sector.

“竖起大拇指”旨在开发和演示每日（基于环保 PCM）和每周（基于 TCM 吸附技术）级别的热能存储 (TES) 解决方案，以便轻松集成到欧盟建筑物（连接和未连接到 DHN）中提高能源效率以及利用电热（PtH）方法也使欧盟建筑成为电网灵活性参与者。 THUMBS UP 希望克服最先进的建筑集成 PCM 和 TCM TES 技术的所有限制，提高 TES 能量密度并降低资本支出。 THUMBS UP 在不同层面进行创新，从建模到材料，再到增强换热器解决方案，目标是在 TRL 7 上进行演示。欧盟可持续经济的高性能 TES 解决方案是 THUMBS UP 的核心因素。该项目真正开发了 i) 从目前欧盟食品工业中浪费的原材料中提取的生物基 PCM，将其转化为有价值的 TES 材料和 ii) 完全依赖于无害材料和水作为工作流体的 TCM。 TUMBS UP TES 将在不同欧盟气候和能源市场背景下的 3 个演示地点（西班牙的一栋单户建筑和瑞典/西班牙的 2 栋多户建筑）进行演示，同时评估两个复制地点（ITA、ITA、荷兰）。通过其演示和复制活动，THUMBS UP 宣传 TES 作为关键使能技术的作用，以优化建筑物的热舒适度和能源效率，并促进 PtH 作为部门耦合方法中可再生能源电网集成的促进者，通过创新的建模工具进行研究。 “竖起大拇指”特别关注如何通过将技术进步与 TES 定制的数字创新相结合，将 TES 解决方案完全集成到建筑物和更广泛的智能能源网络中。 “THUMBS UP”扩大了控制、监控和预测如何操作建筑集成 TES 系统的能力，以便为 H&C 和电力部门提供服务。
