THERMAL ENERGY STORAGE AND EXCHANGE WITH INTEGRATED ROTATING MEDIA TRANSPORT A. PROJECT OBJECTIVES CONCENTRATING SOLAR POWER (CSP) SYSTEMS WITH THERMAL ENERGY STORAGE (TES) CAN ACHIEVE HIGH-CAPACITY FACTORS USING MOLTEN SALTS, ROCK BED, OR HEATED PARTICLES FOR THERMAL STORAGE, AND THESE SYSTEMS CAN SCALE STORAGE DURATION INDEPENDENTLY OF THE POWER BLOCK. THE GOAL OF THIS PROJECT IS TO DEVELOP A PARTICLE MEDIA TRANSPORT AND STORAGE SOLUTION ENALBING RELIABLE POWER GENERATION THAT COMPARES FAVORABLY WITH INTERMITTENT RENEWABLES LIKE SOLAR PV AND WIND COUPLED WITH BATTERY STORAGE.
