PCM thermal energy storage
The basic principle behind PCM thermal energy storage lies in the material''s ability to absorb and release heat during phase transitions. When a PCM reaches its melting point, it absorbs a significant amount of heat from its environment. This process is called "latent heat storage". The PCM absorbs heat without increasing in temperature.

An overview of thermal energy storage systems
Thermal energy storage at temperatures in the range of 100 °C-250 °C is considered as medium temperature heat storage. At these temperatures, water exists as steam in atmospheric pressure and has vapor pressure. Typical applications in this temperature range are drying, steaming, boiling, sterilizing, cooking etc.
Thermal Energy Storage Systems in the District Heating Systems
Heat supply consists of four key stages: generation, storage, transportation and distribution of heat among consumers. The factor that combines these stages is the heat loss which has different origin and value at each stage. The quantitative value of losses is one of the main indicators of energy efficiency.
