Background Hawai‘i, like many other states, has an energy policy that calls for reducing dependence on imported fossil fuels by increasing energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy resources. Despite innumerable plans and studies of energy options over the last three decades, Hawai’i’s dependence on imported fossil fuels has actually increased. This is partly [...]
Executive Summary The major share of energy which is needed in industrial production processes is below 250°C – a temperature level, which could be well supplied by solar thermal technologies. The lower temperature level (< 80°C) can already be provided today with commercially available solar thermal collectors. Most solar applications for industrial processes are on [...]
Solar Process Heat A transpired collector is installed at a FedEx facility in Denver. Commercial and industrial buildings may use the same solar technologies—photovoltaics, passive heating, daylighting, and water heating—that are used for residential buildings. These nonresidential buildings can also use solar energy technologies that would be impractical for a home. These technologies include ventilation [...]
