Open access Abstract To meet the energy-saving requirements of heating and cooling, a novel environmentally friendly combined heating and cooling system based on solar photovoltaic and energy storage technologies (PV-ES) is proposed.
The conventional system and the combined heating and cooling system based on solar photovoltaics and energy storage are shown in Fig. 2.
Solar heating is the application of solar thermal energy collected by solar thermal collectors to heating needs. According to the different methods of collecting solar energy, it is classified into the active and passive types. The main judgment is based on whether external driving force is needed. Two heating systems are introduced below.
Solar Cooling Systems: These systems use heat absorption to create a cooling effect, functioning oppositely to heating systems. They are less common but can be highly effective in sunny climates. Solar heating systems are an efficient way to harness energy from the sun to keep your home comfortable.
The quest for sustainable energy solutions has led to the innovative integration of solar power into heating and cooling systems. Solar-powered heating and cooling systems represent a significant leap forward in environmental stewardship and energy efficiency.
