Solar photothermal utilization, among them, involves employing specific equipment to convert solar radiation into heat energy through focusing, direct absorption, or other means, thereby meeting various application needs [ 4 ]. This approach is cost-effective, widely adopted, and holds significant potential for developing and applying clean energy.
SPCS systems have great potential for practical water treatment in the future. Developing high-efficiency solar photothermal conversion and storage (SPCS) technology is significant in solving the imbalance between the supply and demand of solar energy utilization in time and space.
For solar energy photothermal conversion and storage systems, materials not only have efficient photothermal conversion capabilities, but also provide a place for storage and energy exchange for phase change media, while avoiding problems such as leakage and poor thermal conductivity during the phase change process.
According to the AM 1.5 G solar spectrum, solar radiation energy distribution is non-uniform, with ∼47% of the energy in visible region and ∼51% in infrared (IR) region . Therefore, photothermal materials with broad and strong light absorption across the ultraviolet, visible and IR regions are highly required for photothermal applications.
Using photothermal conversion materials to capture solar energy, energy conversion, and then through phase change materials to store solar energy can effectively solve the imbalance between the use of solar energy in time and space supply and demand.
