摘要

With the increasing urgency of global energy transition and the demand for low-carbon development, nuclear energy has received considerable attention as an efficient and clean energy source, particularly in the heating sector. Nuclear combined heat and power (CHP) technology, which generates electricity while utilizing excess heat for heating purposes, is a key method for achieving higher energy efficiency. The integration of thermal energy storage can address the mismatch between the timing and spatial distribution of nuclear heat supply and demand, thereby enhancing energy utilization efficiency and system stability. This study explores the principles, advantages, economic viability, and optimization strategies of coupling nuclear CHP with thermal energy storage. Based on case studies and theoretical research, policy recommendations and future research directions are proposed to advance this technology. The expected outcomes aim to provide theoretical support and technical guidance for the broader adoption of nuclear heating applications, presenting practical value and significant potential for widespread implementation.
