“…Additionally, other components of building services compete for roof space. STFs replace building cladding elements and their associated embodied energy (Greening and Azapagic, 2014;Lamnatou et al, 2015;Maurer et al, 2015a). However, vertically orientating the STCs reduces the annual solar yield per m 2 of collector (by approximately 26% in Dublin) when compared with an optimally tilted surface (Fig.…”

“…The utilization of direct solar energy has drawbacks such as spoilage due to rain and inability to control drying process, but the advantage is low cost capital budget and operating [3]. There are many methods used to dry some applications, such as using heat pump drying, heat exchanger, desiccant [2], solar thermal system [4], and electronic heating appliances [5].…”

This study discusses the indirect clothes dryer using solar photovoltaic energy. The dryer is used to dry clothes and is designed to be practical, safe and environmentally friendly. The purpose of this study was to test the performance of an indirect clothes dryer in drying clothes. The results of drying clothes produced in the form of clothes that are ready to be ironed. The clothes dryer under study uses a solar thermal energy source which is converted from solar photovoltaic to charge electric current into the battery. The electric current is changed from DC to AC to turn on the 6-unit heater fan which is installed in a drying cabinet measuring 100 × 60 × 120 cm. The research showed that the solar photovoltaic dryer clothes dryer run well with an average drying room temperature of 40-41°C and could desiccate clothes made of polyester within 45 minutes of drying time.

“…Planners should be more educated and the companies should focus more on marketing so as to gain market and business. A roadmap for the R&D on BIST and its marketing has been developed [20]. Physical and technical parameters of the BIST were considered and with comparison with the IEA SHC Task 41: Solar Energy & Architecture, the parameters to be considered for the integration were simplified to functionality of the system, aesthetic value, environmental impact, Economic feasibility and availability of the technology.…”

In the current scenario of increasing population and rapid urbanization, energy requirements in human habitats are exponentially increasing which is nearly 40% of the total energy produced. Therefore technologies and methods for reducing energy utilization in buildings are being developed throughout the world. Energy efficiency and conservation are two important aspects as it takes a larger stack in running the buildings, which is being highlighted in the "Green Building" concept. In urban buildings, energy is required mostly for lighting and air conditioning. In terms of lighting, daylighting and less energy intensive lighting devices like LED, CFL etc. are being used. Use of renewables like solar energy for power generation and also for air conditioning were also found to be used in buildings. Recent researches are based on using the building itself or its parts like roofs, facades, windows etc. for utilizing solar powers using technologies like Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) and Building Integrated Solar Thermal (BIST). Similarly building integrated thermal energy storage using phase change materials along with construction materials for space cooling and heating were also been used. This paper highlights such sustainable technologies which are used to reduce the energy requirements for lighting and air conditioning in buildings.
