ABSTRACT The urgent demand for renewable energy solutions, propelled by the global crisis and environmental concerns, has spurred creation of innovative materials solar thermal storage. Photothermal phase change (PTPCMs) represent a novel type composite material (PCM) aimed at improving storage efficiency incorporating photothermal into traditional PCMs encapsulating them within porous structures. Various encapsulation have been studied, including carbon, expanded graphite, ceramics, but issues like brittleness hinder their practical use. To overcome these limitations, flexible PTPCMs using organic polymers—like foams, hydrogels, wood—have emerged, offering high porosity lightweight characteristics. This review examines recent advancements in preparation based on polymer supports through techniques impregnation situ polymerization, assessing impact different PCM performance clarifying mechanisms conversion heat Subsequently, most applications polymer‐based are systematically summarized, future research challenges possible solutions discussed. aims to foster awareness about potential promoting environmentally friendly practices catalyzing further this promising field.
