Eguzki-energia termikoa: etxebizitzen eskariak asetzeko erabilera anitzeko iturri-berriztagarria

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to provide information on the current situation of solar collectors in the building sector. Solar thermal energy is a key for the energy transition, so it is necessary to know the technologies of exploitation of the source and its operating ranges, taking into account, especially, the current situation of solar energy in Spain and the specific installations in buildings. Although conventional solar systems are currently installed, there are other less common configurations. For this reason, the findings of recent years must be taken into account in order to introduce new materials, geometries and heating fluids for solar collectors. In addition, solar systems can be integrated into architectural elements and solar cooling applications and air conditioning networks can be promoted. Consequently, it is demonstrated that the thermal applications of solar energy are versatile and adaptable for any building thermal demand.
