Definition
• Substances with a high heat of fusion • By exploiting their endothermic and exothermic reactions
using the latent heat of fusion they are capable of storing and releasing large amounts of energy
• The thermal energy transfer occurs when materials change state, or phase; from liquid to solid, or solid to liquid

Technology
• PCM store large quantities of heat by means of a phase change – for instance from solid to liquid
• Example: “Free” energy from the sun coming through the window melts the wax, which then solidifies once the temperature drops; returning heat to the space when it is most needed;In the cooling phase, PCM absorb energy in the form of solar gain from the air, thereby reducing the cooling load.

Importance
• Increases energy efficiency by reducing the amount of energy needed to heat and cool spaces
• Matches the supply and demand of heating/cooling in terms of timing and amount
• Improves quality of the space in residential and commercial applications
• Ensures security of general and stand alone (off-grid) supply

Definition
• methodical support for market entry of innovative high-tech products or services
• supports the critical phase of “market entry” in innovation marketing, based on qualitative market research procedures
• uses community-based innovation and open innovation approaches, and applies technology acceptance/resistance models (perceived usefulness (PU) and perceived ease of use (PEoU))
