Hydride Heat Engine captures the Sun's energy with , efficient solar hot water panels

[LMagic007]

Ergenics' Hydride Heat Engine captures the Sun's energy with simple, efficient and cost effective solar hot water panels.

The hydride heat engine is comprised of solar hot water panels, a fan cooler or radiator, a hydride-based hydrogen compressor and a hydraulic motor-generator set.

The solar panels produce hot water using energy from the sun. The most economical use of solar energy is making hot water and flat plate solar collectors have been available for more than thirty years. The hot water is pumped to the hydrogen compressor, which is the heart of the system; it converts the thermal energy in hot water into work energy by compressing a gas. The compressed gas is expanded in a hydraulic motor-generator set that produces electricity, after which it returns to the compressor.
