Continuous solar steam generation requires a photoabsorber with high capillarity or a hydrophilic surface, the capability of floating on water and low thermal conductivity. Hence, we propose an alternative interfacial solar steam substrate made of soil as a novel cost-effective. . Researchers have discovered an innovative solution beneath our feet: using soil as an efficient thermal energy storage system. When spring arrives and the heating season comes to an end, keeping warm becomes less of an issue. The novel system is based on directly heating a particular mass of soil through the solar power and utilizing he energy stored in critical months such as November, December, January and February.

The cross-seasonal borehole thermal storage technology is based on the solar heat source exchanging heat with the underground soil through the buried pipe heat exchanger, transporting low-quality heat sources in non-heating season to the underground soil for collection and storage. . The cross-seasonal borehole thermal storage technology is based on the solar heat source exchanging heat with the underground soil through the buried pipe heat exchanger, transporting low-quality heat sources in non-heating season to the underground soil for collection and storage. . A seasonal solar soil heat storage (SSSHS) system applied in greenhouse heating has been designed and introduced. The system consists of solar collector subsystem, soil heat storage subsystem, greenhouse heating subsystem, hydronic subsystem and control subsystem. By applying soil heat storage. . Seasonal thermal energy storage (STES), also known as inter-seasonal thermal energy storage, [1] is the storage of heat or cold for periods of up to several months. In this paper, on the basis of validation with experiments, a numerical model was established. .
