摘要:
A system for heating and supplying electricity to residential, commercial, and industrial buildings using renewable energy that is stored, at little or no incremental cost, in a large mass of warm or hot water. The large thermal mass is sized based on the building. Thermal energy from a number of sources, including, but not limited to renewable energy panels, waste heat, and flue gas, are used to provide heat to the large thermal mass.
摘要:
A method and system for improving the efficiency of renewable energy panels. The invention is comprised of a means for evaporatively misting renewable energy panels and for allowing the renewable energy panels to track the sun. Depending on the environment and installation, the systems can be used individually or together. The invention improves the efficiency of the renewable energy panels by lowering their operating temperature and allowing the panels to optimize energy collection.
摘要:
A system for cooling residential, commercial, and industrial buildings using renewable cold energy, accessible from the ambient environment, that is stored, at little or no incremental cost, in a large mass of cold water or ice. The cold mass is sized based on the building. The cold storage mass can be constructed using a variety of methods, depending on the climatic region, zoning requirements, terrain, size of land, and availability of water sources, amongst other considerations.
