The different kinds of thermal energy storage can be divided into three separate categories: sensible heat, latent heat, and thermo-chemical heat storage. Each of these has different advantages and disadvantages that determine their applications. Sensible heat storage (SHS) is the most straightforward method. It simply means the temperature of some medium is either increased or decreased. This type of storage is the most commerciall.

Batteries consist of two electrical terminals called the cathode and the anode, separated by a chemical material called an electrolyte. To accept and release energy, a battery is coupled to an external circuit. Electrons move through the circuit, while simultaneously ions (atoms or molecules with an electric charge) move through the electrolyte.

Using natural rocks to store heat could be cheaper than using molten salts and oils. Some demonstration projects such as GridScale in Denmark, and a larger gigascale system in Israel, are already underway. They store energy in tanks full of crushed stone. But the properties of rocks can vary based on where in the world they were formed.
