1. Introduction• Last decades global climate has changed significantly, with a 1.5°C higher temperature than in XIX century. [1]

• In order to reduce the global warming as much as possible, it is necessary to reduce use of fossil fuels.

• Solar thermal energy is considered to be the cleanest carbon reduction technology.• With the yields of 388 TWh of solar thermal energy in 2017, reduced amount of CO2 worldwide was 134.7 million tones. [2]

• Solar energy potential, together with an economical solar system production gives the opportunity for cheep and environmental friendly energy exploration.

3. Perspectives of solar thermal energy use

Solar thermal energy advantages and perspectives of usage [7][6] ***, European Solar Thermal Technology Platform, Solar Heating and Cooling for a Sustainable Energy Future in Europe, n.d.[7] ***, International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), www.irena.org.remap., Renewable energy in district heating and cooling, 2017.

• According to vision 2030, a future strategic goal is to supply a 50% of heat demand for building heating and cooling through the solar systems [6].

Environmentally friendly: -Less air pollution -Meets emission targets

Fuel independence, sustainable energy for an affordable price

Suitable for urban areas

Interaction with existing DHC systems: -cost-effective -relieves electrical grid

Wu, X.L. Sun, J.F. Chen, Solar heating and cooling: Present and future development, Renewable Energy, 126 (2018), pp. 1126–1140.

• Perspectives of solar energy usage can be also shown through the competitive prices of heat.• The costs of solar thermal energy will decrease around 60% with a development of technologies and market [6].• PBP for SHS from 3 to 15 years, while the PBP for cooling systems varies from 8 to 12 years depending on the type of collectors, size of the system, location and local feed-in policies [8].• It is estimated that the specific investment cost of small solar thermal systems in Europe will be six times lower by 2030.

4. Conclusions According to the Directive EU 2018/2001, it was proposed that the share of RES consumed in EU by 2030 should be at least 27%. In addition to achieve EU 2030 goals, it is also suggested to include solar thermal technologies in accordance with a national potential and strategies. Solar energy provides a large scale of benefits towards EU goals regarding energy savings, fossil fuels reduction, CO2 emission reduction, RES implementation in existing DHC networks, a growth of new, innovative technologies and markets, sustainable development and healthier urban environments. A special attention should be dedicated to development of solar cooling systems, having in mind the availability of solar energy in period of highest cooling demands. Sustainability of solar thermal energy is a significant factor in future energy strategy, providing a lower dependency from fossile fuel import. With an installation of solar plants as a sub-system in an addition to existing plants, it is possible to achieve savings during whole year. Initial higher costs for solar systems can be compensated by low operation costs end free solar energy.
