Solar thermal collector — A solar thermal collector is a solar collector specifically intended to collect heat: that is, to absorb sunlight to provide heat. Although the term may be applied to simple solar hot water panels, it is usually used to denote more complex… … Wikipedia
Solar hot water — is water heated by the use of solar energy. Solar heating systems are generally composed of solar thermal collectors, a fluid system to move the heat from the collector to its point of usage. The system may use electricity for pumping the fluid,… … Wikipedia
Solar inverter — Internal view of a solar inverter. A solar inverter or PV inverter is a critical component in a Photovoltaic system. It performs the conversion of the variable DC output of the Photovoltaic (PV) modules into a utility frequency AC current that… … Wikipedia
Solar cell — A solar cell made from a monocrystalline silicon wafer … Wikipedia
Passive solar building design — Elements of passive solar design, shown in a direct gain application … Wikipedia
Space-based solar power — Left: Part of the solar energy is lost on its way through the atmosphere by the effects of reflection and absorption. Right: Space based solar power systems convert sunlight to microwaves outside the atmosphere, avoiding these losses, and the… … Wikipedia
Dye-sensitized solar cell — A selection of dye sensitized solar cells A dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC, DSC or DYSC[1]) is a low cost solar cell belonging to the group of thin film solar cells.[2] … Wikipedia
