The idea is to avoid - to the extent possible - heat from escaping. From escaping a building, for example. Some substances let heat pass through rather easily, in others, it is difficult for heat to pass.

Ovens retain heat by utilizing insulation. The insulative coverings help prevent thermal conduction through the walls of the oven.


Where can thermal energy be stored if possible to be stored?

Thermal energy can't be stored in the long term. You can store it in the short term, by putting material that is hotter (or colder) than the surroundings within some thermal insulation. The problem is, no such thermal insulation is perfect - some heat will always escape, over time.
