Stash Energy is currently working on an energy storage technology in collaboration with several utilities**including Hydro Ottawa, Maritime Electric, Saint John Energy. They have also received investment from**Summerside Electric, a power utility in Prince Edward Island with the highest level of integration of wind**energy in North America. They have already shown evidence of scalability and commercial viability of this**technology. This energy storage system uses phase-change materials (PCM) that pose many challenges, which**restrict its use. Therefore, further research is required to improve the technology.**It is proposed to explore alternative methods of energy storage in Dr. F. Handan Tezel's Energy-SMART lab in**the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering at University of Ottawa, in Stash's energy storage**system. After the successful completion of the NSERC Engage project, Dr. Tezel wants to continue her**collaboration with Stash Energy through this proposed NSERC Engage Plus proposal for the optimum design**of the proposed heat pump combined with adsorption thermal energy storage capability. They are applying for**more funds to build a prototype and commercialize this technology, according to the design that will be**finalized during this Engage Plus project. This research will assist Stash Energy in developing their next line**of products. In turn, Stash Energy will be better positioned to have a significant impact and to expand their**market share in Canada and internationally, which will also generate jobs for scientists, engineers, and**technicians in Canada. The development of this technology has a potential to replace existing technology; and**thereby reduce the amount of greenhouse gases that are currently emitted by the industry in Canada and if**implemented internationally, all over the world.

Stash Energy目前正在与几家公用事业公司 ** 合作开发储能技术，包括Hydro渥太华，Maritime Electric，Saint John Energy。他们还获得了 **Summerside Electric的投资，该公司是爱德华王子岛的一家电力公司，拥有北美最高水平的风能 ** 集成。他们已经证明了这种技术的可扩展性和商业可行性。这种储能系统使用相变材料（PCM），这带来了许多挑战，限制了它的使用。因此，需要进一步研究以改进该技术。建议探索替代的能量存储方法，在F。位于渥太华大学化学和生物工程系的邯郸Tezel能源智能实验室，位于Stash的能源存储系统中。在成功完成NSERC Engage项目后，Tezel博士希望通过提出的NSERC Engage Plus提案继续与Stash Energy合作，以实现热泵与吸附式热能储存能力相结合的最佳设计。根据将在Engage Plus项目期间 ** 最终确定的设计，他们正在申请 ** 更多资金来构建原型并将该技术商业化。这项研究将有助于Stash Energy开发他们的下一系列产品。反过来，Stash Energy将更好地发挥重大影响，扩大其在加拿大和国际上的市场份额，这也将为加拿大的科学家，工程师和技术人员创造就业机会。这项技术的发展有可能取代现有技术;** 从而减少加拿大目前工业排放的温室气体量，如果 ** 在国际上实施，将在全世界减少。
