2. Solar chimney - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_chimney

   A solar chimney – often referred to as a thermal chimney – is a way of improving the natural ventilation of buildings by using convection of air heated by passive solar energy. A simple description of a solar chimney is that of a vertical shaft utilizing solar energy to enhance the natural stack ventilation through a building.

3. Solar thermal energy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_thermal_energy

   A solar chimney (or thermal chimney) is a passive solar ventilation system composed of a hollow thermal mass connecting the interior and exterior of a building. As the chimney warms, the air inside is heated causing an updraft that pulls air through the building. These systems have been in use since Roman times and remain common in the Middle East.

   Roof Gnome compared U.S. cities on the solar viability of their roofs, potential solar energy production, and projected financial and environmental impact to rank the best locations for 2024.

6. Passive solar building design - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_solar_building_design

   A roof pond passive solar system, sometimes called a solar roof, uses water stored on the roof to temper hot and cold internal temperatures, usually in desert environments. It typically is constructed of containers holding 6 to 12 in (150 to 300 mm) of water on a flat roof.

7. Rooftop solar power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rooftop_solar_power

   Solar panels are generally protected by tempered glass and secured with an aluminum frame. [11] The front of a solar panel is very durable whereas the back of a panel is generally more vulnerable. Mounting clamps generally consist of aluminum brackets and stainless steel bolts that secure solar panels to one another on the roof and onto the rails.
