The growing energy demand in the world is an ever-increasing issue with regard to climate change and energy supply. The world consumes large amounts of fossil fuel that drives climate change and empties the supplies of fossil fuels more rapidly. One action that will benefit energy usage globally is to increase the energy efficiency of buildings. Free air cooling is truly a green concept since even 1 g of carbon is not burnt for the purpose of cooling. Also, it ensures that good indoor air quality is maintained in the building. Latent heat storage is one of the most efficient ways of storing thermal energy. Unlike the sensible heat Storage method, the latent heat storage method provides much higher storage density, with a smaller temperature difference between storing and releasing heat. This project works on latent heat storage and provides an insight into recent efforts to develop new classes of phase change materials (PCMs) for use in energy storage. There are large numbers of phase change materials that melt and solidify at a wide range of temperatures, making them attractive in a number of applications.
