Abstract

Energy storage system regulating power output of a power generation plant that has a heat exchanger, primary circuit and secondary circuit, primary circuit directs primary fluid flow to components of a primary region and secondary circuit directs a secondary fluid flow to components of a secondary region, the heat exchanger is arranged so the secondary fluid flow is heated from the primary fluid flow. Energy storage arrangement makes a vessel for storing secondary fluid. Fluid transfer arrangement connects the vessel and is connectable to the heat exchanger of the power generation system to arrange the fluid transfer arrangement in fluid communication with the heat exchanger and the vessel. Bidirectional flow arrangement configured to control flow direction of fluid between the vessel and fluid transfer arrangement to selectively store heat energy from the heat exchanger in the vessel, and selectively transfer heat energy stored in the vessel to the heat exchanger.
