OSTI ID:6497126

The CCMS Solar Energy Pilot Study was established in 1973 with the objective of encouraging the cost-effective and practical application of solar energy to heating and cooling in residential, commercial, industrial, agricultural, and public buildings. The scope of the pilot study has been the exchange of information on (1) national solar heating and cooling programs, (2) solar heating and cooling experiments, with emphasis on system performance data, and (3) specialized regional applications of solar heating and cooling. The various elements of this multilateral cooperative program are described briefly in the Executive Summary and discussed in further detail in other sections of the report. Significant accomplishments, an assessment by the Participants of the effectiveness of this project, and recommendations of the pilot study for follow-up activities at both the national and international levels are also included.
