Summary

Using phase-change materials (PCMs) in buildings represents a promising strategy to improve energy efficiency, reduce heating and cooling demands, and support sustainability goals. This Reprint compiles recent advances in the design, modeling, and application of PCMs across diverse building systems and components. Topics include PCM integration in façade panels, energy-storage flooring, glazing systems, nanogrid configurations, and novel materials such as carbon aerogels. Together, these studies offer suggestions for innovative technologies and solutions to address the current global energy and climate crises, emphasizing the vital role that sustainable, energy-efficient buildings play in this endeavor.
