Solar Thermal Electricity (STE) is a renewable energy source and is a technology, which is converted Solar energy into thermal energy in the form of heat . which produce hot water for your daily requirements with the energy of sun. these hot water ‘s we can use for domestic,industrial and production of steam for the generation of electricity.

A/c to us energy information administrationSolar thermal collectors are classified. Low temperature collectors

Medium temperature collectors

High temperature collectors

Low temperature collectors are flat plates

collectors and evacuated tube collectors generally use to heat swimming

pools .the temperature range of low thermal collectors 5 to 30 degree .

 Medium-temperature collectors are also used flat plates collectors but are used for heating water for cooking.

the temperature range of medium thermal

collectors 30 degree to 100 degree .

 High-temperature collectors concentrate sunlight using mirrors or lenses and are generally used for electric power production. The temperature range of

high thermal collectors above 100 degree.

For high temperature We use parabolic concentrate collectors.

we know that sun is a good source of energy so that in the future we will all most depends on sun’s energy by using solar thermal

energy.The STE industry is committed technologicalImprovements and focused on increasing

plantEfficiency and reducing operating cost.

All these factors can lead to electricity

generation cost saving up to 30%by 2015 and up to 50% by 2025 and saving conventional cost like coal /gas and all other fuels By increasing

size of plant.

Low Temperature (> 30C) Swimming pool heating Ventilation air preheating •Medium Temperature (30C –100C) Domestic water and space heating Commercial cafeterias, laundries, hotels Industrial process heating •High Temperature (> 100C) Industrial process heating Electricity generation

It dose not produce green house gases. Infinite free energy. Decentralization of power. Going off grid with solar. It is renewable energy system Saving eco-system and livelihoods.

Solar dose not work at night. Solar inefficiency. Solar panels are bulky. Cost of installing solar panels

Low medium and high temperature collectorsand solar thermal technology for production ofElectricity and water heating and various

purpose is ready for the industry.Various types of single and dual purpose plants

and Industry Have been analyzed and tested in the

solar thermal fields.
