SEM images of salt composites with different carbon nanomaterials . Except for the thermal conductivity, latent heat is also a crucial thermophysical parameter determining the thermal energy storage performance. Therefore, when adding nanoparticles into the basic PCM, attention should also be paid on the variation of latent heat.
Nonetheless, it was also explained how the charging rate of the PCM material can significantly be enhanced with the increase in heat transfer and how cascaded latent heat thermal energy storage system are used as an ideal solution to improve charging and discharging of PCM based thermal storage systems.
These benefits are assigned to phase change material use; however, those materials possess low thermal conductivity that degrades their thermal performance in latent heat thermal energy storage systems.

Flywheel energy storage (FES) works by accelerating a rotor (flywheel) to a very high speed and maintaining the energy in the system as rotational energy.
The operation of the electricity network has grown more complex due to the increased adoption of renewable energy resources, such as wind and solar power. Using energy storage technology can improve the stability and quality of the power grid. One such technology is flywheel energy storage systems (FESSs).
Flywheel Bearings The energy storage capacity of an FESS can be enhanced by increasing the speed and size of the flywheel rotor. However, a significant limitation of FESSs comes from the bearings that support the flywheel rotor.
The theoretical exploration of flywheel energy storage (FES) started in the 1980s in China. The experimental FES system and its components, such as the flywheel, motor/generator, bearing, and power electronic devices, were researched around thirty years ago.
Flywheels, one of the earliest forms of energy storage, could play a significant role in the transformation of the electrical power system into one that is fully sustainable yet low cost.
