  2. Solar water heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_water_heating

    When a solar water heating and hot-water central heating system are used together, solar heat will either be concentrated in a pre-heating tank that feeds into the tank heated by the central heating, or the solar heat exchanger will replace the lower heating element and the upper element will remain to provide for supplemental heat. However ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_thermal_energy

    The first three units of Solnova in the foreground, with the two towers of the PS10 and PS20 solar power stations in the background. Solar thermal energy (STE) is a form of energy and a technology for harnessing solar energy to generate thermal energy for use in industry, and in the residential and commercial sectors.

  4. Renewable thermal energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renewable_thermal_energy

    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. [2] 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 generator. However, because generating electricity ...

  5. Solar thermal collector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_thermal_collector

    The term "solar collector" commonly refers to a device for solar hot water heating, but may refer to large power generating installations such as solar parabolic troughs and solar towers or non-water heating devices such as solar cookers or solar air heaters. [1] Solar thermal collectors are either non-concentrating or concentrating.

  6. Solar energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_energy

    Solar energy is the radiant energy from the Sun's light and heat, which can be harnessed using a range of technologies such as solar electricity, solar thermal energy (including solar water heating) and solar architecture.
