Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

In recent years, the quest for sustainable and efficient energy storage solutions has gained significant momentum. Thermal energy storage (TES) technologies play a crucial role in enhancing the efficiency and reliability of energy systems. The integration of highly efficient TES systems has the potential to revolutionize various sectors, including renewable energy, industrial processes, and building applications. This Special Issue aims to collate cutting-edge research and advancements in the field of highly efficient TES technologies.

This Special Issue invites original research articles, reviews, and case studies that address a wide range of topics related to highly efficient TES technologies. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Advanced materials for thermal energy storage;
  • Phase change materials (PCMs) and their applications;
  • Sensible, latent, and thermochemical storage systems;
  • Novel designs and configurations of TES systems;
  • Heat transfer enhancement in TES;
  • The integration of TES with renewable energy sources;
  • Thermal energy storage for industrial processes;
  • The performance optimization and modeling of TES systems;
  • Thermal energy storage for building applications;
  • Thermal management and control strategies;
  • Economic and environmental assessments of TES technologies.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Energies is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

Thermal energy represents more than half of the energy needs of European industry, but is still misspent in processes as waste heat, mostly between 100 and 200 °C. Waste heat recovery and reuse provide carbon-free heat and reduce production costs. The industrial sector is seeking affordable and rugged solutions that should adapt the heat recovery to heat demand. This study aims to identify suitable latent heat materials to reach that objective: the selected candidates should show good thermal performance that remains stable after aging and, in addition, be at a reasonable price. This paper details the selection process and aging results for two promising phase change materials (PCMs): adipic and sebacic acid. They showed, respectively, melting temperatures around 150 °C and 130 °C, degradation temperatures (mass lost higher than 1%) above 180 °C, and volumetric enthalpy of 95 and 75 kWh·m−3. They are both compatible with the stainless steel 316L while their operating temperature does not exceed 15 °C above the melting temperature, but they do not comply with the industrial recommendation for long-term use in contact with the steel P265GH (corrosion speed > 0.2 mm·year−1).
