With more variable renewable and distributed generation sources integrated into the electrical grid, it becomes more difficult to reliably match supply and demand. Energy storage can play a key role in addressing such mismatch. While typically one considers electro-chemical batteries for storage, thermal energy storage can also be a resource. Most U.S. buildings typically have low thermal mass, so the addition of materials that change phase (phase change materials or PCMs) is an option. This
seminar will revisit some of the concepts and challenges to incorporate PCMs in the building envelope.
