This review offers an exhaustive examination of current developments in organic phase change materials (PCMs), addressing encapsulation techniques, nano-enhanced PCMs, hybrid composites, and form stabilization approaches. However,the relatively low thermal conductivity of the majority of promising PCMs (<10 W/(m ? K)) limits the power density and overall storage. . Take Addis Ababa's landmark Sheger Tower project – their 2MW/4MWh battery system reduced generator use by 82% in Q1 2025 [4]. 2 Over the past 15 years, Ethiopia's economy has grown rapidly, with an average annual GDP growth rate of 9. 3 Despite this positive trajectory, the. . Phase change materials (or PCMs) are materials that absorb and release large amounts of energy when they change phases, for example from solid to liquid or liquid to gas, to provide the stored energy for heating or cooling a system.
