This review highlights the latest advancements in thermal energy storage systems for renewable energy, examining key technological breakthroughs in phase change materials (PCMs), sensible thermal storage, and hybrid storage systems. Practical applications in managing solar and wind energy in residential and industrial settings are analyzed.
The most widely used techniques for thermal energy storage involve hot water tanks and the thermal inertia of buildings. These techniques make it possible to use the heat produced during sunny days to cover the heating needs during the night and peak demands related to domestic hot water use.
Sensible heat storage Two types of Thermal Energy Storage (TES) should be considered: active and passive systems Py and Olives . In the active system, the storage system is often composed of two tanks, one for the coldest fractions of the storage media and the other for the warmest fraction.
A recent study evaluated the effectiveness of TES in solar plants, showing how thermal storage capacity significantly improves operational efficiency and production stability [2, 8].
