Generating heat causes around one third of UK greenhouse emissions. The 2011 Carbon Plan requires virtually zero carbon buildings in UK by 2050. Heat storage is a key component when generating heat from intermittent renewable sources or to shift heat production to off-peak periods while heat consumption remains on-peak. Today, water-based thermal stores are commmon in the UK, but their large size make them undesirable or impossible to fit in smaller dwellings. Sunamp's Heat Battery technology uses Phase Change Materials to shrink heat storage to around one quarter the size of equivalent hot water thermal stores. This project allows Sunamp to develop a network of sensors that can accurately measure the State of Charge of Heat Batteries. This refined measurement will allow Sunamp to optimise the control strategy of the whole system, improving performance, energy saving and financial payback.

产生的热量约占英国温室气体排放量的三分之一。2011年的碳排放计划要求，到2050年，英国的建筑几乎为零碳。当从间歇性可再生能源中产生热量时，或者在热量消耗保持在高峰时将热量生产转移到非高峰时段时，储热是一个关键组成部分。今天，水基保暖商店在英国很常见，但它们的巨大规模使它们不受欢迎，或者不可能适合较小的住宅。Sunamp的热电池技术使用相变材料将热存储缩小到同等热水热存储大小的四分之一左右。该项目允许Sunamp开发一个传感器网络，可以准确地测量热电池的充电状态。这一精细化的测量将使Sunamp能够优化整个系统的控制策略，提高性能、节能和财务回报。
