Solar assisted cooling with sorption systems: status of the research in Mexico and Latin America.
Author(s) : BEST R., PILATOWSKY I.
Type of article: Article, IJR article
Summary
Solar refrigeration projects both national and international with sorption and other refrigeration systems have been developed in Mexico and other Latin American countries in the last 15 years. A review of the main projects, both for solar cooling and refrigeration and the results obtained are presented in the paper. A methodology where 19 solar technologies for cooling were identified is also presented. Although solar cooling is still not an economically viable technology, the advance made and the experience gained in the projects described and the improved systems envisaged, will make solar refrigeration systems play an important role in the future.
