The demand for cooling, whether for comfort or food preservation is a major consumer of energy across the world and is growing. The use of solar energy to meet that demand has a natural synergy, but the technical and economic challenges are large. Some of the different available technologies are compared and contrasted, including absorption, adsorption, desiccant wheels etc. and the state of the art as reviewed in the TEA Solar Heating and Cooling Task 38 is outlined. Adsorption cooling, the technology under development at Warwick, is explained in more detail and progress is charted with reference to different projects: one on car air conditioning and a new one to develop a 5m3 solar thermal cold store.
