Fossil fuels such as coal, petroleum and natural gas have been the main energy resources for everything vital for human society. The burning of fossil
3、 fuels has caused and is causing damage to the environment of earth. By 2050 the demand for energy could double or even triple as the global population grows and developing countries expand their economies. This has already raised concerns over potential supply difficulties, depletion of energy reso

The utilization of solar energy is as old as human history. Among various types of renewable energy resources, s
5、olar energy is the least utilized. Air conditioning is essential for maintaining thermal comfort in indoor environments, particularly for hot and humid climates. Today, air conditioning comprising cooling and dehumidification has become a necessity in commercial and residential buildings and industr

This is a source of major problems in the countrys electricity supply and contributes to an increase of CO2 emissions causing the environmental pollution and globa

On the other hand, vapour compression air conditioning systems have impacts on stratospheric ozone depletion because of the chlorofluorocarbons (CFC) and the hydro fluorocarbon (HCFC) refrigerants. The use of solar energy to drive cooling cycles is attractive since the cooling load is rou

Solar air conditioning systems help to minimize fossil fuel energy use. Among the evolving energy efficient air conditioning techno

Desiccant evaporation cooling technology is environmental friendly
10、 and can be used to condition the indoor environment of buildings. Unlike conventional air conditioning systems, the desiccant air conditioning systems can be driven by low grade heat sources such as solar energy and industrial waste heat. In this study, a focus is made on reduction in Air Condition

Solar system can be classified into two categories; those are thermal systems which convert solar energy to thermal energy and photovoltaic systems which convert solar energy to electrical energy. However, more solar radiation which falling on photovoltaic cells is not conv

This method leads to a drop of electricity conversion efficiency due to an increase in the photovoltaic cells working temperature. In the past century, scientific community has devoted much effort to procure energy sustainabi

In both ways, solar resources are gaining popularity because they increase energy independence and sustainability at the same time offering nearly zero impact to the enviro

The increasing scarcity and cost of fossil fuels and incentives to reduce greenhouse gas emissions have led to a growing interest in solar energy. Solar energy is widely affordable and has the capability to meet household demand over the year. Unfortunately, its intermittency and variability with weather conditions, time and seasons lead to a mismatc
