The use of solar energy in industrial processes has been studied since the 1970s (SERI, 1980; Fuller, 2011), but due to high capital costs and low costs for coal and gas for industrial applications, only limited deployment has taken place over the last thirty years.
The integration of solar thermal energy systems with the industrial processes mainly depends on the local solar radiation, availability of land, conventional fuel prices, quality of steam required, and flexibility of system integration with the existing process.
Solar process heat installations used for industrial use are similar to those used in residential buildings, especially for those applications where only low (< 150°C) to medium (150°C – 400°C) temperatures are required. For higher temperatures (>400°C), more advanced or concentrated solar collectors are required.
