Based on the condition of the energy storage material, Socaciu's review divides SHS generally into two categories: sensible liquid storage and sensible solid storage (Fig. 11). While sensible liquid storage makes use of liquids like water or molten salts, sensible solid storage makes use of materials like rocks or soil.
