The solar heating and cooling (SHC) roadmap outlines a pathway for solar energy to supply almost one sixth (18 EJ) of … the world’s total energy use for both heating and cooling by 2050. This would save some 800 megatonnes of carbon dioxide … (CO2) emissions per year; more than the total CO2 emissions in Germany in 2009. While solar heating and cooling today …

Single cooling and desalination technologies require a high amount of energy to produce cooling and fresh water … appears also interesting. The major increases in cooling and desalination demands occur in locations where solar energy is … abundant. This article reviews the latest research works on systems able to carry out cooling and/or desalination using solar …

This paper presents a modeling and optimization investigation of a solar driven adsorption cooling system working with … balance in the main components of the solar collector is presented. Furthermore, a simulation code based on alternating …
