Abstract: Abstract Solar energy storage has been an active research area among the various solar energy applications over the past few decades. As an important technology for solving the time-discrepancy problem of solar energy utilisation, seasonal/long-term storage is a challenging key technology for space heating and can significantly increase the solar fraction. It widens the use of solar collectors and results in better solar coverage of the space heating demand. This paper reviews all three available technologies for seasonal heat storage: sensible...
