The Pitch:
In a normal house hold 60% energy usage is heating and cooling. Best way to use solar energy efficiently is to directly use solar thermal property by storing heat inside a oil tank.
My idea is to build a system mainly based on Solar Heat. Then convert the energy for direct usage. So there is no need for a battery storage.
This system is powered by polycarbonate solar trough mirror. Parabolic solar trough collector can even be made with aluminum foils or reflective stickers to lower the cost of production. Absorption tubes that fixed inside the solar trough mirror will supply heat then to be stored inside a insulated oil tank.
For cooking, oven will be heated by the oil pumped from the tank. Cooking can be done 24/7 independent from the sun light.
For electricity generation , heated oil is connected to a Stirling engine based generator or a closed loop steam turbine generator .
For the cooling or for air conditioning heated oil will power up an absorption refrigerator which has no moving parts and requires only a heat source to operate.
This system has no battery storage, no expensive solar panels and system can be hybrid with bio waste burner for continues energy supply even there is no sunshine for weeks.
This system will revolutionize the way of living with carbon neutral energy.
