Efficient storage of heat energy is a crucial challenge in solar thermal applications. Phase change materials (PCMs) have gained prominence due to their unique ability to store and release thermal energy through phase transition. The advantageous characteristic of PCMs is their low melting point. . In a concentrating solar power (CSP) system, the sun's rays are reflected onto a receiver, which creates heat that is used to generate electricity that can be used immediately or stored for later use.

During charging, an external power source such as solar power drives the oxidation-reduction reactions (one electrolyte loses electrons while the other gains electrons), storing energy in the electrolytes. During discharging, the reverse reactions occur, releasing the stored energy as electricity.. Unlike conventional batteries (which are typically lithium-ion), in flow batteries the liquid electrolytes are stored separately and then flow (hence the name) into the central cell, where they react in the charging and discharging phase. This type of technology has many advantages: Starting with.
