Objective The elaboration of a thermochemical storage adapted to thermal solar energy has two main objectives:1- Improvement of Solar Heating System: solar energy is provided independently of the needs, leading to some losses of the energy supplied. SOLARSTORE aims at storing unused solar energy and releasing on demand. The efficiency of the solar installation will be thus improved, as well as its autonomy (a solar system is always coupled with other powers installations).2- New concept for solar cooling: SOLARSTORE will lead to mixed heating/cooling systems thanks to the thermochemical storage, promoting a viable alternative to current energy intensive air conditioning systems.
