    The heated water can then be used in homes. The advantage of solar thermal is that the heated water can be stored until it is needed, eliminating the need for a separate energy storage system. [75] Solar thermal power can also be converted to electricity by using the steam generated from the heated water to drive a turbine connected to a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_updraft_tower

    The solar updraft tower (SUT) is a design concept for a renewable-energy power plant for generating electricity from low temperature solar heat. Sunshine heats the air beneath a very wide greenhouse-like roofed collector structure surrounding the central base of a very tall chimney tower.

  7. Copper in heat exchangers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_in_heat_exchangers

    The copper heat pipe transfers thermal energy from within the solar tube into a copper header. As the solution circulates through the copper header, the temperature rises. Other components in solar thermal water systems that contain copper include solar heat exchanger tanks and solar pumping stations, along with pumps and controllers.
