Decarbonising the energy supply system is crucial to mitigate climate challenges. An emerging type of the multi-energy system, that is, the low-temperature electrified district heating
The energy storage capacity for sensible heat storage materials is low, which results in latent heat storage materials. Thus, thermal energy is stored and released by altering the phase without altering the temperature in this mode. The thermal latent heat storage (Q) may be written as [ 28 ]:
The conventional energy storage materials are for low and medium temperature range applications and are tested under these conditions. The thermal energy storage system can be classified based on various categories.
The sensible heat storage materials have less capacity to store energy. The latent heat storage materials mainly discussed that include organic type of energy storage materials, inorganic PCMs in which some have better thermal properties while other types of PCMs have good thermal energy storage density.
The thermal energy storage system can be classified based on various categories. Based on temperature range, it can be divided as low-temperature thermal energy storage (LTTES) system and high-temperature thermal energy storage (HTTES) system [ 1, 2 ].
