Phase change heat storage and flexible energy utilization in buildings

Under the context of constructing new power systems, the high penetration of renewable energy has led to intermittency and volatility in energy supply. Phase change energy storage has emerged as a key solution to address the mismatch between energy supply and demand in buildings and to enhance the flexibility of building energy systems. Focusing on phase change thermal storage and building flexible energy use, this presentation will introduce a series of theoretical and applied advances in areas including the modification and performance enhancement of phase change material, heat transfer intensification theories for phase change storage equipment, and dynamic regulation technologies for phase change storage system.
