Solar heat generation – could it also be an alternative for breweries?

Use of solar energy as a thermal energy source for breweries can, under certain conditions, make sense and be commercially attractive, even when 100 percent coverage of energy requirements is not possible. In an article in “Der Weihenstephaner” No. 3, 2007, p.101 and 102, Dipl.-Ing Ulrich Buchhauser, Faculty of Raw Materials and Energy Technology, and Univ.-Prof. Dr.-Ing. (ret.) Roland Meyer-Pittroff, starting from the fundamentals of solar heat generation, examine the question where in the brewing process it may be feasible to use smaller solar units.
