Abstract: This paper briefly reviews the recent developments in heat storage media and materials for containerizing the medium. Analyses are carried on high temperature heat storage devices using electricity to produce heat, aluminum-silicon alloys as the storage medium and S316 as the container material. The results suggest the feasibility of the products both technically and economically.

Key words: heat storage technology, electrical heating phase change materials, aluminum-silicon alloys
