“…Opposed to thermochemical energy storage systems, it has no available commercial applications that require phase materials development. The advantage of applying the latent heat energy storage rather than the sensible heat is due to the higher TES that is reached to 10 times higher from sensible heat energy storage density 2,27 …”

Modern so‐called renewable energy storage technologies are actually broadening concerns over future sustainability awareness for facing the fossil fuel scarcity crisis. We need to be more innovative in using and storing the free‐cost energy sources that are essentially needed to be adopted in our modern societies. Several initiatives have been addressed for renewable energy storing capabilities. Recently, one of the areas gaining scientists attention is the solar energy storage via phase change materials (PCMs). PCMs are those materials that signified by storing surplus solar energy and releasing the accumulated energy collected when it is in deficiency for its later use in which they are situated. This ambition is based on capturing the heat provided by the solar field for useful utility applications, such as power production, solar cooling, and domestic water heating. This review is aiming to assist the researchers by providing an overview of PCMs basics, classifications and their technological applications. Additionally, a detailed information and literature reviewed toward enhancing the thermal conductivity of PCMs' systems via numerous nanomaterials additions are discussed and their various thermal energy storage applications are overviewed. The pros and cons of nanoadditives PCM are also discussed. Future perspectives and PCMs trends are provided.

Salt hydrates are one of the most common inorganic compounds that are used as phase change material (PCM). These are available for a wide range of phase transition temperature for thermal energy storage (TES) application. They have some most desired properties for TES applications like high latent heat value, good thermal conductivity, nonexpensive, and were nonflammable. Besides these, due to the undesirable properties like phase segregation, supercooling, and corrosion to the containers, this PCM not recommended for TES application. To mitigate these issues and to make salt hydrates suitable in TES application, much research has been carried out in past years. This main highlight of this article is to provide a comprehensive overview of the use of salt hydrates, their applications and summarize the research outcomes reported by various researchers to every issue for its TES application. This summarized information will be useful to those who are interested to work on this research area. Along with this literature focuses on the advantages, disadvantages, and mechanism of salt hydrates for TES system during its thermal cycle process.

Summary As an energy storage material, microencapsulated phase change materials (MPCMs) have become a research hotspot in recent years due to their unique thermophysical properties. However, this material usually has limitations in terms of its performance, such as low encapsulation efficiency, leakage during phase change, poor cycle stability, and high degree of supercooling. To solve these problems, nanoparticle as‐modified material to improve the performance of MPCMs has attracted the attention of both domestic and overseas scholars. This paper aims to review the research progress of MPCMs modified by nanoparticle from three aspects: preparation, performance, and application. In this paper, the preparation method and principle of nanoparticles used for the modification of MPCMs are first introduced. Then, based on different properties (mechanical properties, thermal conductivity, thermal stability, and supercooling), the research works of nanoparticle‐modified MPCMs in recent years are reviewed. Finally, the practical applications of nanocomposite MPCM in the field of slurry, building, asphalt pavement, and battery thermal management are reported.
