“…Thermal Energy Storage (TES) allows the storage of heat energy in the form of temperature, phase change, or a reversible chemical reaction [49]. Multiple case studies have been performed for better conversion of solar to heat energy for TES, such as optimized solar air collectors, PCM nanoadditive solar stills, and improved energy storage in permanent magnets and Mg 2+ -doped CaCO 3 /PEG composites [50][51][52][53]. TES are categorized into sensible heat storage (SHS) [54], latent heat storage (LHS) [55], and thermochemical energy storage (TCES) [56].…”

This review article explores the critical role of additives in enhancing the performance and durability of thermochemical energy storage (TCES) materials, particularly in limestone-based systems. It evaluates various strategies, including hydration and the use of fine particles, along with additives like Al2O3 and ZrO2, to address challenges like performance degradation and sintering over multiple cycles. Additionally, the review examines how multicyclic stability and material activity toward CO2 are related. It emphasizes the importance of selecting support materials that optimize both stability and reactivity. Furthermore, it highlights the need for systematic investigation into the selection, synthesis methods, and additive percentages to identify optimal formulations for improved multicyclic stability. Finally, it underscores the importance of understanding the mechanisms of interaction between additives and CaO/CaCO3 matrices to guide the design of effective additive-integrated systems. This comprehensive analysis provides valuable insights into current methodologies, emerging trends, and future directions for advancing sustainable energy storage technologies.

“…The cost of the distilled freshwater is 0.03 and 0.0235 $/L for the CSS and MSS-IR-PCM, respectively. Likewise, Afolabi et al [86] undertook research to overcome the constraints of double-slope solar still by incorporating phase change material-thermal energy storage (PCM-TES) into the system. To do this, the phase change material (PCM) was encapsulated at a microscopic level utilizing vacuum molding processes in combination with an epoxy resin composite.…”

The efficient utilization of solar energy technology is significantly enhanced by the application of energy storage, which plays an essential role. Nowadays, a wide variety of applications deal with energy storage. Due to the intermittent nature of solar radiation, phase change materials are excellent options for use in several types of solar energy systems. This overview of the relevant literature thoroughly discusses the applications of phase change materials, including solar collectors, solar stills, solar ponds, solar air heaters, and solar chimneys. Despite the complexity of their availability and high costs, phase change materials are utilized in the majority of solar energy techniques because of the considerable technical improvements they provide. While numerous studies have investigated the progress of phase change materials used in solar energy applications such as photovoltaic systems, it is vital to understand the conceptual knowledge of employing phase change materials in various types of solar thermal energy systems. Investigations into the use of phase change materials in solar applications for the purpose of storing thermal energy are still being carried out to upgrade the overall performance. This paper briefly reviews recently published studies between 2016 and 2023 that utilized phase change materials as thermal energy storage in different solar energy systems by collecting more than 74 examples from the open literature. This study focuses on demonstrating the maturity of phase change materials and their integration into solar energy applications. Based on the findings, proposals for new research projects are made.
