Managing this storage capacity enables greater use of locally generated renewable energy (solar thermal, photovoltaics, small wind, small hydropower, etc.), renewable \u201csurplus electricity\u201d from the grid in combination with heat pumps, and time-shifting of heat delivery by hours or days (load shifting, grid-supportive electricity use at times of low CO2 emissions), as well as flexibility options in micro, local, and district heating networks.
