Danish company AC Sun recently made news with the “invention” a new solar-powered air conditioning system.The new systems are pollution-free, low-noise, and use only 10% of the energy of conventional systems. The only problem is they’ve already been invented, several times over. [pdf]
CAES systems consist of compressors, storage reservoirs, heat exchangers or recuperators, and turbines. The process can be divided into two main phases: charging (compression) and discharging (expansion). [pdf]
