Energy; Solar power

Convert solar energy to useful purposes. They can provide: electrical generation by heat engine or photovoltaic means; space heating and cooling in active and passive solar ...

solar hot water

Energy; Solar power

Water heated by the use of solar energy.

solar cell

Energy; Solar power

a solar cell (also called photovoltaic cell or photoelectric cell) is a solid state electrical device that converts the energy of light directly into electricity by the ...

passive solar

Energy; Solar power

Technologies that capture sunlight for heat energy without use of active mechanical systems such as fans or pumps (as contrasted to active solar). Such technologies convert ...

solar power

Energy; Solar power

Also called solar energy, solar power is electricity generated from sunlight, either directly using photovoltaics (PV), or indirectly using concentrated solar power (CSP). ...

solar heat gain

Energy; Solar power

Measurement of the amount of solar heat that is captured for use by a solar collector surface including a solar roof, solar siding or ground-mounted solar system. A typical ...
