By
Vikrant Venkataraman
By combining solar energy, passive cooling techniques, and intelligent system design, residential & commercial cooling can become:
- More affordable
- More energy efficient
- More environmentally sustainable
Key facts:
"Thermal energy driven cooling systems have the potential to reduce electricity consumption by 85 %"
"In 2050, cooling becomes the single largest user of electricity in buildings, ahead of appliances and other plug loads" (Source: IEA report on Future of cooling)
"Solar thermal energy is termed as renewable heat and thermal energy from Solid Oxide Fuel Cells or other devices is termed as residual heat"
