1st International Conference on Solar Heating and Coolingfor Buildings and Industry (SHC 2012) Thermal energy storage by chemical reactions is one of the most suitable energy storage systems for buildings and industrial applications due to the wide range of working temperatures as well as the high energy storage density provided. Developing and characterizing chemical reactions is now one of the most promising areas of research. Chemical heat pumps are one of the systems used when chemical reactions are utilized as thermochemical energy storage technology. Nevertheless, the main problem to implement this technology is found in the material behaviour within the reactors used. Therefore, material and reaction characterization have been identified as key issues to design a proper system. The main goal of this paper is to highlight the parameters to take into account previous to the design. The work is partially funded by the Spanish government (ENE2011-28269-C03-02 and ENE2011- 22722). The authors would like to thank the Catalan Government for the quality accreditation given to their research group GREA (2009 SGR 534) and research group DIOPMA (2009 SGR 645).
