Solar thermal energy uses the sun''s power to make heat. This heat can do a lot of things, like warming up water in our homes, powering industrial processes, and even making electricity. This beginner''s guide will help you understand what solar thermal technology is all about, the different ways it can be used, and why it''s good for our planet
Madagascar''s Ministry of Water, Energy and Hydrocarbons (MEEH) has released a list of six pre-qualified bidders for the country''s 25MW (AC) Scaling Solar
Thermal energy storage at temperatures in the range of 100 °C-250 °C is considered as medium temperature heat storage. At these temperatures, water exists as steam in atmospheric pressure and has vapor pressure. Typical applications in this temperature range are drying, steaming, boiling, sterilizing, cooking etc.
21.06.2023 - Solar stoves with thermal energy storage for families in Madagascar are intended to prevent even more forest from being lost in Madagascar. The solar stoves are being developed in a cooperation between the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts and the NGO ADES from Mettmenstetten.
In this way, district energy system can provide flexibility to the energy system in two ways: by providing storage and by enabling switching between different energy sources for example, large-scale heat pumps,
Solar-thermal storage with phase-change material (PCM) plays an important role in solar energy utilization. However, most PCMs own low thermal conductivity which restricts the thermal charging
Contracts for the 205 MW Sahofika Project (expandable to 300 MW) were signed in November 2021. The completion of this project will contribute to a significant reduction in the cost per kWh, increase access and improve JIRAMA''s financial situation.

A Crucial Resource for Economic and Social Development. In Madagascar, only 15% of the population has access to electricity. In 2017, the country had just 570 MW of mainly thermal (60%) and hydroelectric (40%) installed production capacity. Furthermore, only 60% of this energy is truly available owing to poor maintenance of
There are two ways to heat your home using solar thermal technology: active solar heating and passive solar heating. Active solar heating is a way to apply the technology of solar thermal power plants to your home.Solar thermal collectors, which look similar to solar PV panels, sit on your roof and transfer gathered heat to your house
Particles under d p ≈ 1 mm can be easily fluidized without very high gas flow rates, which ensures a reasonable pumping cost.The fluidization process of solid particles strongly depends on the density and size of the particles. Geldart (1973) defined the fluidization regimes shown in Fig. 2, which are currently considered to be the
