Sun Powered School Heating and Cooling Trial at Towns Elementary
Engineers partner with sun to cut education costs. Towns Elementary in Atlanta will be the first large building to use solar cooling and heating with an NSF contract to design install and analyze. Solar collectors provide about 60 percent of hot water and climate control energy. The system stores excess heat in four 6000 gallon tanks and uses rooftop collectors for domestic hot water and heating or cooling as needed.
