A solar collector tube, often called an empty tube solar collector, is a type of solar thermal collector that holds and retains solar heat for use such as space or water heating through the use of empty glass tubes. For solar collector tubes, the market is expanding as a result of high energy prices, environmental issues, renewable heat, government incentives and increasing demand for technological innovations and technological innovations that reduce expenses.
Key Growth Drivers and Opportunities
Rising Adoption of Rooftop Solar Panels: The solar collector tubes is expanding due to increasing roof solar panels worldwide, increasing demand for solar thermal solutions for both residential and commercial use. The demand for effective solar collector tubes increases as more businesses and home owners invest solar energy, making supplementary technologies such as solar water heating systems.
Challenges
The cost of high early installation and maintenance in the solar collector tube market, the availability of sunlight and the performance dependence on weather conditions and integration with the current heating system faced challenges. Additionally, limited awareness in developing areas and space obstacles for installation can become a hurdle in widely adopting.
Innovation and Expansion
Apricus Launches ‘Etros’ Evacuated Tube Collector for High-Efficiency Heating
In September 2022, Apricot solar company, a prominent designer and manufacturer of solar hot water and hydronic heating products, launched a new empty tube solar collector called Etros with advanced coatings for better efficiency.
The new collector is aimed at residential and commercial heating applications. The company has increased in a global appearance with sales in the US, Australia, France and more than 30 countries.
Inventive Sparks, Expanding Markets
Solar collector tubes, or empty tube solar collectors are used to hold and maintain solar heat for space and water temperature. Their market is increasing due to rising energy costs, environmental concerns, reducing fossil fuel dependence, government incentives, increasing roof solar panels and technological progresses that increase efficiency and low costs.
