Objective
Due to high engineering and installation costs and due to the lack of appropriate and supplementary artificial lighting systems common heliostatic sunlighting systems are suitable so far only for effect illumination. The main goal of the project is to develop the basics for an economic and energy saving heliostat technology for a widespread room illumination use by means of direct sunlight combined with artificial light. This heliostat technology consists of three systems: a moveable mirror which tracks the sun (heliostat), a supplementary artificial light system for substituting the sun if absent (solar simulator), and a system which transports and distributes the sunlight inside the building (distributor). The RTD work results in:
- a brochure with the scientific and technical foundations of an overall heliostat technology;
- a planning handbook for the above mentioned heliostat technology;
- a pilot project with a prototype of a low cost and energy efficient heliostat technology, including a heliostat, a solar simulator and a distributor.
