As a result, scientists lie- gan to search for altema- - live energy sources that were renewable or in un- limited supply. One of the most promising was solar energy, since a single day's sunshine, used to its utmost efficiency, could satisfy the world's energy needs for 15 years.

Isolated- - gain systems are so called because solar radiation enters a collector space that is physically isolated from the area to be heated. A collector space fa usually a subterranean area, covered by south- - facing glass, with a dark metal or wood absorption plate behind the glass. AS SPACE radiation enters the collector space, it warms the air within the space and is absorbed by the collector plate. The warmed air naturally flows upward into a rockbed storage area located underneath the living quarters. The heat from this storage mass then rises into the living quarters through floor registers. An isolated- - gain system, also called a thermosiphon system, can be used to heat water instead of air. In such cases, the, heated water in the collector space is circulated by a pump and moved into the home or building through tubing. In the United States today. most thermosiphon systems are being used to provide homes and offices with hot water systems or booster water heaters. SOLAR energy can be used to cool a building as well as to heat it.
