“…Therefore, incorporating 800 m 2 of CPC makes it possible to achieve an FS of 81.8% and an SPB of 9.33 years [107]. The BM-SC-TES-ABS system was also evaluated for restaurants in China with four possible configurations that reached solar fractions between 17% and 32% [175]. Furthermore, preheating the fluid before entering the ABS allows energy savings of 30% in summer and 60% in winter, minimizing the use of BM [175,176].…”

“…The BM-SC-TES-ABS system was also evaluated for restaurants in China with four possible configurations that reached solar fractions between 17% and 32% [175]. Furthermore, preheating the fluid before entering the ABS allows energy savings of 30% in summer and 60% in winter, minimizing the use of BM [175,176]. The reason is that BM provides heat during climate variability without oversizing SC-TES systems, which is attractive when considering penalties for CO 2 production from the electricity grid [174].…”

The trend to reduce CO2 emissions in cooling processes has made it possible to increase the alternatives for integrating solar energy with thermal equipment whose viability depends on its adaptation to polygeneration schemes. Despite the enormous potential offered by the industry for cooling and heating processes, solar cooling technologies (SCT) have been explored in a limited way in the industrial sector. This work discusses the potential applications of industrial SCTs and classifies hybrid polygeneration schemes based on supplying cold, heat, electricity, and desalination of water; summarizes the leading SCTs, and details the main indicators of polygeneration configurations in terms of reductions on primary energy consumption and payback times. To achieve an energy transition in refrigeration processes, the scenarios with the most significant potential are: the food manufacturing industry (water immersion and crystallization processes), the beverage industry (fermentation and storage processes), and the mining industry (underground air conditioning).
