Abstract

Sensible thermal energy storage is widely used in different technologies such as buildings and solar power plants, but also in solar cooling, solar drying of food products, and solar cooking. This chapter summarizes the materials mostly used in thermal energy storage, with special highlight to high temperatures (>150 °C).
