Switzerland’s energy system is largely based on stored energy resources, including fossil fuels, nuclear power, and hydropower. As these are increasingly replaced by wind and solar energy, new methods of energy storage across multiple time scales become essential. This work addresses seasonal energy storage through electric and thermal sector coupling in buildings. The Swiss building sector is highly energy intensive, consuming approximately 200,000 TJ/a (22% of total national energy demand) for heating purposes. For space heating and domestic hot water, three technology pathways are commonly studied: sensible, latent, and sorption (thermochemical) storage. This work focuses on the latter. The investigated system is a sorption storage heat pump consisting of a heat and mass exchanger together with storage tanks, operating with the working pair aqueous sodium hydroxide and water. During summer, heat or electricity is used to separate water from the solution through evaporation, after which the components are stored separately as nearly lossless chemical potential. In winter, the stored media are recombined to operate a sorption heat pump: water is evaporated at low temperature and absorbed into the sodium hydroxide solution, thereby releasing heat at an elevated temperature suitable for building heating. This demonstrator project, representing the first installation of a sorption storage heat pump integrated into a building heating system, builds upon research conducted at Empa and HSLU and funded by the SFOE, Innosuisse, and the EU Horizon programme. The installation is being carried out at a small industrial facility in the city of Frauenfeld. The system consists of a 5 kWth heat and mass exchanger and storage tanks containing the working fluid, designed to provide approximately 750 kWhth of usable heat capacity. Initial operation of the system was only partially successful due to the early-stage nature of the technology. During the project period, the heat and mass exchanger was replaced with an upgraded version in the first quarter of 2026. Further testing and operational monitoring will continue until the end of winter 2027.
