Cold store is a critical component of the cold chain and represents a significant energy-consuming segment within the entire process. Energy efficiency and consumption reduction during cold store operations can lower costs across the cold chain, enhance enterprise market competitiveness, and contribute to power grid stability. The innovative use of low-temperature phase change materials in cold store offers a novel pathway for carbon reduction in the cold chain industry, addressing the high energy consumption of traditional cold store. This topic has garnered significant attention from researchers and industry stakeholders. This paper reviews the fundamental principles, types, and characteristics of phase change cold store systems, summarizes low-temperature phase change materials suitable for application in cold store, and analyzes the current status of design and performance research on phase change cold store, encompassing both theoretical and experimental studies. Additionally, the operational control strategies and economic aspects of existing phase change cold store systems are examined. Finally, based on the current advancements in phase change cold store systems and materials, this paper proposes principles for material selection, system design, and operational optimization, while envisioning future developments and application prospects in this field.
