“…[17,18] However, these methods depend on either complicated functional materials or expensive building construction, which prevents their wide application in existing buildings. Moreover, these currently available systems lack a user-defined mechanism to carefully regulate indoor temperature [19] and their efficiencies are quite low compared with those of traditional fossil-fuel-based systems. Therefore, it is still important to develop cheap, modulable, environmentfriendly strategies that allow on-demand heating or cooling.…”

Space cooling and heating currently result in huge amounts of energy consumption and various environmental problems. Herein, a switching strategy is described for efficient energy‐saving cooling and heating based on the dynamic cavitation of silicone coatings that can be reversibly and continuously tuned from a highly porous state to a transparent solid. In the porous state, the coatings can achieve efficient solar reflection (93%) and long‐wave infrared emission (94%) to induce a subambient temperature drop of about 5 °C in hot weather (≈35 °C). In the transparent solid state, the coatings allow active sunlight permeation (95%) to induce solar heating to raise the ambient temperature from 10 to 28 °C in cold weather. The coatings are made from commercially available, cheap materials via a facile, environmentally friendly method, and are durable, reversible, and patternable. They can be applied immediately to various existed objects including rigid substrates.

Energy demand depend strongly on growth of world population, householders and urbanization. The energy consumption forecasting allows to give a guide for the future development in technologies. The need in energy saving as an energy source and the thermal energy storage can play a strategic role in energy recovering. After a general description of the main concept of thermal energy storage are given the classification of the different storage systems involved in several applications. It is underlined that one of the main applications is related to the solar energy conversion systems and their development is linked to the economic policy choices on energy.

The high energy use for building operations in humid tropical climates is mostly used for operational mechanical ventilation such as air conditioning (AC) and fans. The use of large amounts of energy, especially fossil energy can reduce the quality of the environment, causing an increase in the temperature of the earth. Need more efforts for management of energy use by reducing fossil energy consumption. One effort that can be done is to replace mechanical production and utilize passive ventilation in buildings. this study is a literature review regarding the use of passive ventilation using a windcatcher integrated with solarc himneys. The use of windcatcher and the solar chimney is still very rare in Indonesia, but has the potential to solve thermal problems, especially in densely populated residential areas in cities that have the character of a humid tropical climate. The results of this study recommend criteria from windcatchers and soler chimney that might be applicable and adapt to the character of the urban humid tropical climate.
