Abstract: The supply of solar energy is practically inexhaustible and practically non-polluting. Todays collection, storage, and utilization technology is at the stage that, in the short term of the next 10 to 20 years, solar energy can be applied in the heating and cooling of buildings as well as in heating water. These applications account for about 25% of todays total energy consumption in the United States. Further, if a rational program can be adopted, reasonable projections indicate that by the year 2000, energy savings in fossil fuels can reach 170 billion kWhr while the value of such savings in 1970 dollars would be 4.5 billion/ yr, Despite the apparent desirability of achieving these goals, many factors will affect the rate at which it is achieved.
