Mobilized thermal energy storage for clean heating in carbon neutrality era : A perspective on policies in China

• Mobilized thermal energy storage (M-TES) is a promising technology to transport heat without the lim-itation of pipelines, therefore suitable for collecting distributed renewable or recovered resources. In par-ticular, the M-TES can be flexibly used for the emergency heating in the COVID-19 era. Though the M-TES has been commercializing in China, there is not any specific regulation or standard for M-TES systems. Therefore, this paper summarizes and discusses the existing regulations and policies concerning M-TES in the aspects of facility manufacture and operation, road transportation, and financial support and guidance. Furthermore, the suggestions were presented including necessary consensus on the devel-opment of M-TES among different departments, consideration of local conditions when drafting or revis-ing regulations and policies, sufficient investment, or subsidy on the R&D of M-TES, and qualification recognition of M-TES companies and staffs.
