Solar thermal technologies convert the sun's energy into usable heat by heating water, air, or other storage media. From space heating to steam production there are numerous processes that can incorporate solar thermal technology. Perhaps the most popular agricultural application is the greenhouse. A well made greenhouse utilizes a glazing which enhances the buildings ability to absorb and trap solar energy. Another common application is crop and grain drying. In these applications, large solar heating units efficiently move hot air into storage areas creating a drying effect and reducing gas or electricity expenditures.
