# **High-Temperature Heat Pumps: Powering the Future**

In an age where _sustainable solutions_ and _energy efficiency_ dominate the global dialogue, there's a game-changer that's quietly revolutionizing the way we think about heating (both space and industrial process): **high-temperature heat pumps**.

Carnot battery working principle
</div>

Carnot Batteries use surplus electricity as an input of a power to heat (P2H) system to create a temperature gradient (thermal exergy). It can have a form of hot and cold storage systems, or just one of those (hot or cold) with the temperature gradient defined against the environment. During the discharging process, the thermal exergy is converted back to work (electricity) by heat to power (H2P) system, in principle a heat engine. Various concepts of CB can be illustrated regarding the P2H and H2P conversion processes and thermal integration of the heat source.

Together with my colleagues, esp. [Václav N](https://www.linkedin.com/in/v%C3%A1clav-novotn%C3%BD-04a2b26b/)., we are modelling systems for power to heat and heat to power from thermodynamic perspective. We represent the Czech Republic in the [IEA Energy Storage Technology Collaboration Programme](https://iea-es.org/) as country delegates and actively participate in [Task36 Carnot Batteries](https://www.eces-a36.org/) within the TCP. Current step is investigating and evaluating the proficiency of early-stage pilot plants Carnot Batteries in Czech Republic, a district heating CHP plants.
