problems the world now faces.[1][2] Solar technologies are broadly characterized as either passive solar or active solar depending on the way they capture‚ convert and distribute solar energy. Active solar techniques include the use of photovoltaic panels and solar thermal collectors to harness the energy. Passive solar techniques include orienting a building to the Sun‚ selecting materials with favorable thermal mass or light dispersing properties‚ and designing spaces that naturally circulate air
