Our Breakthrough in Solar Energy Technology

We are the developers of the first solar technology that can deliver energy at much smaller prices than fossil fuel sources and which is adapted to a multitude of uses in industry, agriculture and building heating. This is actually the first solar technology that can be used economically in any size application.

Many have tried previously to built solar air heaters, but the heat produced was too expensive. Therefore, despite the huge need for heated air, the previous solar air heaters just could not compete with heaters that use fossil fuels. The table below compares our new solar collectors with the best other solar collectors.

Type of collector Price of solar collector [$] Efficiency [%] Energy produced per annum [GJ/yr] Savings generated per year [$/yr] Payback time [years]
Ours 11,000 74 540 5,202 2
Other 42,000 43 262 2,478 14

As the other collectors do not offer an economical solution, they were not used until now.

Our technology consists of:

  • new, very efficient and inexpensive solar radiation absorbers
  • many new solar air heater types, each adapted to a different application
  • a strategy of air pre-heating for fossil fuels burners
  • structural integration that allows retrofitting

As our solar air heaters can deliver air of up to 110 degrees Celsius, they can:

  • provide all the low temperature heat needed for applications that can be interrupted at night or in cloudy weather
  • supply part of the energy for high temperature and/or continuous applications, as they can pre-heat the air used in fossil fuel burners, so a cleaner burn would be produced with less fuel.

Due to the optimised design, our new solar air heaters can be used economically in all climates.
