Molten salts, phase change materials commonly employed in thermal energy storage (TES) systems, are widely known to enhance the efficient use and storage of solar energy in concentrated solar power (CSP) plants. Here, three-dimensional TES (3DTES) have been manufactured from highly porous (up to ∼90 %) 3D printed patterned vermiculite (V) and alumina (Al₂O₃) supports, which have been infiltrated with molten sodium nitrate salt (nn) and solar salt (ss). These 3DTES have been validated under real concentrated solar radiation in a parabolic solar furnace. Among the different 3DTES, those based on V-nn exhibits the best efficiency for the conversion of the incident solar radiation into heat; whereas Al2O3-nn transfers the heat more efficiently and allows a faster charging-discharging cyclability due to its higher thermal conductivity. This study confirms the benefits of additive manufacturing to develop a new class of innovative TES for CSP applications.
