... Solar photo-thermal power generation refers to use large-scale array parabolic or disk-shaped mirror to collect solar thermal energy, to provide steam to turbine generators for power generation [13, 14].
To meet the demands of the global energy transition, photothermal phase change energy storage materials have emerged as an innovative solution. These materials, utilizing various photothermal conversion carriers, can passively store energy and respond to changes in light exposure, thereby enhancing the efficiency of energy systems.
The photo-thermal power generation system consists of four parts: heat collecting system, heat transmission system, heat storage and heat exchange system, and power generation system (see figure 2). In contrast, the linear Fresnel-type and disc-type power station were less than 1%.
This device effectively controls temperature through photothermally driven heat release under conditions as low as −40 °C and achieves a high energy density of 380.76 J/g even at −63.92 °C. The thermal effect is primarily due to light-induced molecular isomerization, a nonradiative relaxation process.
These carriers are primarily focused on enhancing photothermal conversion rates, while also improving thermal conductivity, sealability, and the control of thermal radiation intensity in PCMs. For commonly used PTCPCESM, the photothermal conversion efficiency is required to be above 50% to 70%.
Inspiring new insight to design and construct novel energy conversion and storage devices. Thermoelectric generators (TEGs), which harness and convert solar-thermal energy into electrical energy, possess immense potential within the field of photothermal conversion (PTC).
