Apresentam-se algumas sugestões para desenvolvimentos futuros:
- Analisar de que forma se poderá introduzir os PCM nos diferentes elementos construtivos já existentes, de forma a modernizar e melhorar a eficiência energética de edifícios já existentes.
- Embora existam já diversos estudos sobre o tema, são poucos os projetos que implementaram este material de mudança de fase na sua constituição e, com pouca informação referenciada sobre os respetivos resultados energéticos, é consideravelmente complexo correlacionar os resultados obtidos com os apontados por diversos estudos. Assim, sugere-se acompanhar um projeto que implemente produtos PCM para se entender o método de aplicação do material, mas seria de maior relevo, a apresentação de resultados a nível de consumo energético para vários intervalos de tempo, detalhando a colocação do material, o clima do local, entre outros detalhes essenciais para efetuar uma avaliação correta.
- Avaliar financeira e economicamente o impacto da introdução de PCM em materiais de construção. Como na realização da dissertação não se atingiu o objetivo que pretendia estudar a redução de custos associada à utilização de materiais de mudança de fase, seria importante incidir neste tópico.
- Por último, mas não menos importante, desenvolver um sistema de armazenamento de energia térmica com recurso a PCM, retornando assim ao objetivo original desta dissertação.
