Abstract

Solar cooling is a clean and cost-effective technology, solar cooling offer environmental benefits including reducing main grid demand and shift the load during peak usage and reduced greenhouse gas emissions. The main objective of this paper is to review and analyze different solar cooling technologies that can be used to provide the required cooling and refrigeration effect from solar energy. This paper is covering a wide range of solar cooling technologies including solar electrical refrigeration system, thermo-mechanical combined power and cooling systems and advanced triple effect refrigeration cycles. This paper includes comparisons of different technologies highlighting the advantages and disadvantages. This comparison would assist the decision makers to select the proper solar cooling technology for specific application.
