OverviewDescriptionAdvantages and disadvantagesEfficiencyDevelopmentExamplesSee alsoExternal links

A solar pond is a pool of saltwater which collects and stores solar thermal energy. The saltwater naturally forms a vertical salinity gradient also known as a "halocline", in which low-salinity water floats on top of high-salinity water. The layers of salt solutions increase in concentration (and therefore density) with depth. Below a certain depth, the solution has a uniformly high salt concentration.

What is a Solar Pond?

A solar pond is a large-sized solar energy collector that resembles a pond in appearance. The large salty lake works as a flat plate collector that effectively absorbs and stores solar energy in
