“EnEV Baupraxis”, the German trade journal for energy-efficient new and existing buildings published a comprehensive article about the possible applications of latent heat storage in buildings in its November/December 2016 edition. There is a particular focus on the structural and climatic preconditions for successfully using PCM products, such as construction materials with PCM, chilled ceilings with PCM, or central or local latent heat storages. The article is the ideal introduction for architects and planners who would like to inform themselves about the topic in general.
