ABSTRACT:
Solar Technology Assessment Project is to present an assessment of the state of solar energy technology for individuals involved in energy research, industry, legislation and policy, and to other interested in a better understanding of the nation's energy future. This project was organized
For this project, nine solar technologies--four solar thermal, four solar electric, and one other--were evaluated as follows:
Passive Heating
Active Space Heating and Hot Water
Cooling: Passive, Hybrid and Active
Industrial Process Heat
Photovoltaics
Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC)
Wind Energy
Heliostat Systems
Biomass
Finally, to complete the picture, two other assessments were done, one on the current status and prospects of the solar industry and the other on state and community solar commercialization issues.
