Electrical energy is thus stored in the form of thermal energy in the storage media. During discharge the system uses the stored thermal energy to drive the MG which operates the (heat-and-cold-driven) heat engine working on the standard Joule-Brayton cycle. The cycle follows the same route but in reverse.
