“…The lower thermal conductivity of OPCMs reduces the rate of heat transfer, which causes increase in temperature gradient and insensitivity to temperature changes across the system boundaries. OPCMs, with potential advantage as TES materials, are being developed for applications including air conditioning, ie, natural air cooling, cold thermal storage and absorption refrigeration, waste heat recovery, solar energy storage, thermal regulating fabric, passive heating of building, heat pipes, desalination, thermal management of electronic devices and electric vehicle batteries, spacecraft, and other integrated thermal control systems such as trombe wall, PCM‐filled wallboards, shutter, concrete, under floor heating systems, ceiling boards, and hot water supply . However, the leakage issue and lower thermal conductivity of OPCMs causes harm with interacting medium and results in energy efficiency losses of the thermal system.…”

“…In most residential, commercial, and industrial building equipment, such as those for bathing, laundry, and cleaning, the required hot water temperature is approximately 50°C to 60°C, this range is considered ideal for PCM melting . Flat plate collectors are the most common for low temperature applications (50°C‐70°C) . Papadimitratos et al presented integrated PCMs with solar evacuated tube collectors for water heating and performed several experiments; the heat pipe was immersed inside the PCMs, which was contained in the inner glass tube.…”

“…16,17 Flat plate collectors are the most common for low temperature applications (50 C-70 C). 18 Papadimitratos et al 19 presented integrated PCMs with solar evacuated tube collectors for water heating and performed several experiments; the heat pipe was immersed inside the PCMs, which was contained in the inner glass tube. Compared with nonheat storage prototype, the heat storage parallel and series-parallel prototype had higher conversion efficiency, longer effective heating time, and better heating stability and practicability, and the heat storage solar collector had compact structure, which was convenient to use.…”

“…1,2 Batteries, hydrogen storage, pumped-hydro, flywheel, compressed air storage, supercapacitor, and superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) are the different energy options suitable for such a system. [3][4][5][6] However, all of them have different discharge times and cannot cater to the wide ranges of the timescale of the mismatch in renewable energy systems. Hence, often, a hybrid energystorage solution consists of different technologies with different timescales, which is preferred instead of relying on only one storage system.…”
