This paper reviews the current state of M-TES technologies, focusing on their technology readiness level, key operating parameters, and advantages and disadvantages. The project team would like to acknowledge the support, guidance, and management of Paul Spitsen from the DOE Office of Strategic Analysis, ESGC Policy. . The global energy transition and increasingly rigorous legal regulations aimed at climate protection are driving the search for alternative energy sources, including renewable energy sources (RESs) and waste heat. However, the mismatch between supply and demand presents a significant challenge. Both latent and thermochemical heat storages have a great potential to offer low-loss storage systems with a wide temperature range.
