Construction systems with integrated phase-change materials (PCM) can store a high degree of heat at room temperature. If this heat is transported by means of water-carrying systems, it is possible to regulate room temperatures in an energy-efficient manner. This research project focused on the ongoing development of materials, components and systems with paraffins, the identification of promising applications, the performance of system tests and the development of a planning tool.
