Neglecting quantum fluctuations, a system at the absolute zero of
temperature has no "thermal energy". Thermal energy effects a
non-zero temperature and phase changes.
The thermal energy appears on the left side of your equation 1.
Steam tables are based on the repeatable relation between
temperature, internal energy and phase. "Thermal energy" is not part
of the tables.
