Feasibility study of seasonal solar thermal energy storage in domestic dwellings in the UK (2018)
Journal Article
Ma, Z., Bao, H., & Roskilly, A. P. (2018). Feasibility study of seasonal solar thermal energy storage in domestic dwellings in the UK. Solar Energy, 162, 489-499. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.solener.2018.01.013

Seasonal solar thermal energy storage (SSTES) has been investigated widely to solve the mismatch between majority solar thermal energy in summer and majority heating demand in winter. To study the feasibility of SSTES in domestic dwellings in the UK,... Read More about Feasibility study of seasonal solar thermal energy storage in domestic dwellings in the UK.
