Q Science (General) Solar energy is an easily accessible and promising renewable energy source that could solve the current energy crisis. Thermal energy storage systems incorporating Phase Change Materials (PCMs) are widely preferred owing to their immense energy storage capacity. The thermal energy storage (TES) potential of PCMs has been deeply explored for a wide range of applications, but not limited to solar/electrothermal energy storage, waste heat recovery, energy savings in building, and thermal regulations. The inherent shortcomings like leakage during phase transition, poor thermal conductivity hamper their extensive usage.

The variations in thermophysical properties along with the critical causes are condensed. The effects of porous support on the degree of supercooling, form stability & thermal cycling are briefed.
