About
Practical Solar Inc specializes in advanced heliostat systems designed to optimize solar energy for residential and commercial heating and cooling. Their proprietary technology utilizes concentrated sunlight to drive thermal receivers with exceptional efficiency across various climates. By circulating propylene glycol through high performance heat exchangers, these systems provide reliable water thermal storage for consistent temperature regulation. This sophisticated design allows for zero emission heating even in challenging northern environments like Massachusetts. In addition to heating, the technology integrates seamlessly with absorption chillers to deliver sustainable cooling solutions during warmer months. These durable heliostats are engineered for decades of unattended operation, offering a robust alternative to traditional solar photovoltaic panels. The systems are capable of producing extreme temperatures that surpass standard industrial power towers, making them suitable for diverse thermal applications.
