Abstract: Energy storage technology is an important way to realize the efficient use of energy in power system,phase change energy storage as a new and efficient energy storage technology has a wide range of applications in power system. Phase change energy storage can improve new energy utilization, reduce the electricity of abandoned wind power and solar energy. This paper introduces the development, classification, characteristics and advantage of phase change energy storage materials and emphasizes the application of phase change energy storage in power system, At last, the factors influencing the development and application of phase change energy storage technology are analyzed.

Keywords: Phase change energy storage, phase change materials, power system
