It has been found that both solar thermal and PV systems are suitable for various industrial process applications. However, the overall efficiency of the system depends on appropriate integration of systems and proper design of the solar collectors. Solar energy systems can be considered either as the power supply or applied directly to a process.
There are a few industrial sectors that solar energy can particularly help. Agricultural operations like dairy and poultry farms use a lot of electricity and have spacious roofs perfect for solar panel installation.
Industries need an uninterrupted supply of electricity to keep their operations running. The commercial solar power system is independent of the changing weather. It is a stable and easily distributed energy source compared to fossil fuels for the industrial industry.
These technologies are accepted widely for urban and industrial purposes like power generation, water heating and wastewater treatment. The demand of energy is growing with time, and the world’s supply of conventional sources shrinking; a worthy option is harvesting of energy through solar collectors to meet growing energy demands.
Solar energy systems can either be applied as the power supply sector or directly to a process. Table 4 has tabulated the solar energy applications and the technologies adopted in industrial processes. Table 4. Solar energy applications, system technologies and type of systems commonly used in industry . 3. Solar thermal energy
The commercial solar power system is independent of the changing weather. It is a stable and easily distributed energy source compared to fossil fuels for the industrial industry. With renewable energy from commercial solar power, industries won’t face service interruption.
