In particular, the Rankine Carnot battery (RCB), powered by a combination of a heat pump (HP) and an organic Rankine cycle (ORC), can achieve power-to-power efficiencies exceeding 100 % by adopting low-temperature waste heat [5]. This gives the RCB significant potential in the field of electricity storage.

The stored thermal energy can be used to generate electricity and, uniquely, also directly produce heat that can be used by industrial processes. Furthermore, Carnot Battery GeoTES can also be used to form a cold storage reservoir.
Carnot battery is a large-scale electrical energy storage technology, and pumped thermal energy storage (PTES) is one of the branches in which the waste heat can be efficiently utilized. The integration of the PTES system and waste heat promotes energy storage efficiency and tackles the problem of low-grade waste heat utilization.

A Carnot battery application in a conventional parabolic trough concentrating solar power (CSP) plant is examined. During solar thermal charge cycles, electric heaters import renewable energy (RE). This is stored as thermal energy in the plant''s storage system, thereby boosting solar thermal charge cycles.
Carnot Batteries are an emerging technology for the inexpensive and site-independent storage of electric energy at medium to large scale. Also referred to as "Pumped Thermal Electricity Storage" (PTES) or "Pumped Heat Storage" (PHES), a Carnot Battery transforms electricity into thermal energy, stores the thermal energy in inexpensive storage media such as water or molten salt

Carnot battery (CB), as a novel large-scale energy storage technology, has attracted extensive attention due to its potential to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks [5] a broad sense, liquid-air energy storage (LAES) is also classified into CB, whose development is relatively mature and has entered the commercialisation stage [6], while the term CB mentioned in this paper
In general, the Carnot battery is a large-scale Electrical Energy Storage technology that stores electrical energy through thermal energy.

Carnot batteries store surplus power as heat. They consist of a heat pump, which upgrades a low-temperature thermal energy storage, a high-temperature storage system for the upgraded thermal energy, and a heat engine that converts the stored high-temperature thermal energy into power.

In 2018, the name "Carnot battery" was used at the Hannover Messe, one of the world's largest trade fairs, by DLR. A Carnot battery system can be divided into three parts: Power to Thermal (P2T), Thermal Energy Storage (TES), and Thermal to Power (T2P). Electricity can be converted into heat through the use of various technologies.

A Carnot battery system can be divided into three parts: Power to Thermal (P2T), Thermal Energy Storage (TES), and Thermal to Power (T2P). Electricity can be converted into heat through the use of various technologies. Heat pumps as the technology to pump heat from a lower temperature reservoir to a higher temperature.
Carnot batteries generally aim for a 40-70% efficiency range, significantly lower than pumped-storage hydroelectricity (65-85%). Carnot batteries can be used as grid energy storage to store excess power from variable renewable energy sources and to produce electricity when needed.
A Carnot battery performance may be improved by using additional thermal energy inputs in the charge or discharge phases, but this should not change its primary purpose, which is storing electric energy. Similarly, a Carnot battery may produce both electric energy and useful thermal energy.
As was discussed, LAES stores electrical energy as heat, and not as mechanical energy, hence it should be considered a proper Carnot battery. To store electrical energy, LAES exploits the liquefaction of air, which is a convenient way to store latent heat. Liquefied air is produced cryogenically, at -196°C, which is the boiling point of nitrogen.
