Content
The adoption of the “Stimulus Package” and removal of the tax relief cap have removed many barriers and will, in turn, help spur the development of the solar thermal industry. Our solar thermal tracks will take a look into specific areas of the global industry and expand on various hot topics within the U.S. market. This is the third part of the three-part series.
Topics on Innovative System Technologies will include:
- Process Heat Overview
- Process Heat in the U.S. with building examples
- Large Scale ST Systems in the U.S.
Topics on Future Perspectives will include:
- System designs and cost reduction potential -
history and current status
- State Zero energy home perspective
- Innovative Heat Storage Technologies
- U.S. Solar Thermal Roadmap
