The promise of seasonal storage
It stores energy during one seasonal condition (summer or winter) and discharges the stored energy in the other seasonal condition, depending on the load demand. Seasonal storage is, therefore, closely related to seasonal variations in temperature, wind speed and solar irradiation as these mainly determine the need for heat- and cooling demand
