The reversible reaction of calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) to calcium oxide (CaO) and water vapor is well known in the context of thermochemical energy storage. Cheap material costs, a theoretically very high energy density and the potentially wide temperature range of the reaction imply that the storage system could be beneficial for many high temperature processes. For example the system could be applied to store and reutilize industrial waste heat or as an alternative storage solution in future concentrated solar power plants.
