The world’s energy crisis is not a problem solvable through a single magic energy technology. It will take the combined power of a variety of technologies to properly provide for humanity’s energy needs, both personal and societal. Technologies that harvest sustainable power from the planet can be combined together for a network of clean energy for the world. A major player in this potential future of interwoven energy technologies is that of solar heat.

The sun is arguably the source of all energy on earth. Plants all over the globe transform the radiant energy into food and shelter. The winds and tides are heavily influenced by the sun. Both of these energy sources are secondary compared to direct harvesting of solar heat. Even fossil fuels are effectively stored solar energy; why dig through the dirt for energy, when the more power is sent down each day from the sun. To heat water with the power of the sun is referred to as solar water technology; water makes an effective heat transfer medium, in addition to being relatively cheap, plentiful and non-toxic. A solar heat system designed to provide hot water from ...
... the power of the sun is incredibly useful for a variety of purposes.

A home could provide a significant portion of their home energy load with solar water. Solar heat can give energy for hot water used for laundering, cleaning and cooking. Combined with an effective hydroid heating system, the entire home could be heated through solar energy, floors, walls and everything. With an appropriate device, one can even store the solar heat for use at night or use it for cooling. These absorption chillers exploit certain chemical properties to provide cooling from warmth and store the energy away for future use.

Solar water can easily reach beyond the residential sphere. Industries and businesses can easily reduce their carbon emissions, lower costs and increase their environmental stewardship through solar heat. Any industry that uses process heat can use solar water. By incorporating a solar heat collector into their industrial infrastructure, sectors from food production to textile mills to chemical plants can all benefit from this effectively free fuel.

To collect this energy efficiently, one requires the proper collector. Ideally, the system should be durable, powerful, and provide a small space footprint. The Solar Beam Concentrator from Solar tron Energy Systems easily fits this bill. The Solar Beam is a parabolic dish, which means as its design; it focuses all the solar rays onto a central absorber, where the energy can be transferred along to further infrastructure. Its concentrating abilities require constant solar tracking, which is provided by the Solar Beam’s specialized industrial computer. It follows the sun to a precision of 0.1 degrees, no matter what season or location on the globe.

The SolarBeam is trusted worldwide, with certifications from testing organizations across North America (SRCC and CSA), Europe (Key mark) and Australia and New Zealand (Global Mark). This makes the SolarBeam eligible for rebates throughout the globe; it is trusted and reliable. For more information, please contact sales at solartronenergy.com.
