Volume 2 is the most comprehensive and detailed encyclopedia of solar energy and technology available today, containing all essential solar terms in one place. A convenient source for spelling, classifications, and concise definitions of terms encountered in the study, reading, and practice of solar technologies.

The scope of the encyclopedia includes all terms of importance and topics of primary significance in the field.

Written in a clear, precise, and easy-to-understand style, the encyclopedia is equally accessible to solar specialists and laymen. It is ideal for students, solar enthusiasts, and solar professionals, such as solar technicians, electricians, installers, engineers, scientists, designers, architects, managers, salesmen, marketing specialists, attorneys, writers, and translators.
