Electric Storage Heaters
An electric thermal storage heater is a stand-alone, off-peak heating system that eliminates the need for a backup fossil fuel heating system that is wall-mounted and looks a bit like a radiator that contains a ''bank'' of specially designed, high-density ceramic bricks. These bricks can store vast amounts of heat for extended periods of time.

What are Electric Storage Heaters & How They Work
Also known as night storage heaters, electric storage heaters warm up your house whilst making the most of off-peak electricity prices. They store thermal energy by heating up internal ceramic or clay bricks at night when electricity tends to be off-peak and cheaper. This heat is then released during the day to keep your house warm.

Storage heaters | Creda
Storage heaters draw electricity when it is supplied at a lower price (usually at night) and store this as heat energy for slow release over an extended period. Because of the charging algorithms in Creda storage heaters, they will always be cheaper to run over a 16-hour day than direct-acting heaters, which use standard rate electricity.

Latent heat storage systems store energy without the medium changing in temperature but rather depends on the changing state of a medium. So called ''phase change materials'' have been developed, which can store heat in their mass as latent heat. These ...
Off-peak storage heaters | BUILD
Off-peak storage heaters. Off-peak storage heaters (also called off-peak heat banks and electric thermal storage, or ETS) take advantage of dual-tariff electricity meters by making the best use of the cheaper electricity rates. These heaters store heat when electricity is at its cheapest, then release it into your home when you need it the most.
