This review article, developed by the K6 Committee—Heat Transfer in Energy Systems, a part of the Heat Transfer Division (HTD) of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), summarizes advancements in heat transfer technologies for solar thermal energy utilization and. . Thermal energy storage provides a workable solution to this challenge. In a concentrating solar power (CSP) system, the sun's rays are reflected onto a receiver, which creates heat that is used to generate electricity that can be used immediately or stored for later use. It allows surplus thermal energy—sourced from heat or cold environments— o be stored and retrieved when needed, enhancing energy management flexibility. Given the critical importance of heat transfer, there is. . For regions with an abundance of solar energy, solar thermal energy storage technology offers tremendous potential for ensuring energy security, minimizing carbon footprints, and reaching sustainable development goals. Global energy demand soared because of the economy's recovery from the COVID-19. .
