Molecular Solar Thermal (MOST) Energy Storage—Definitions and Requirements Revisited
Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Volume 65, Issue 1, 2 January 2026.Molecular solar thermal storage (MOST) systems have recently regained great interest after a period of intense research around five decades ago. This perspective clarifies the nomenclature, and introduces the term “mostophore” for molecular entities that harvest and store light energy as heat.
