Barriers for solar thermal systems<br />

<strong>•</strong> The extraord<strong>in</strong>ary development <strong>of</strong> PV sector<br />

(feed <strong>in</strong> tariffs) <strong>in</strong> <strong>Italy</strong> limited the diffusion <strong>of</strong><br />

solar thermal systems<br />

<strong>•</strong> Solar thermal cool<strong>in</strong>g very promis<strong>in</strong>g but still<br />

at <strong>in</strong>fancy<br />

<strong>•</strong> Thermal energy meters <strong>in</strong>stallation <strong>and</strong> costs<br />

could be a barrier for small plants (<strong>in</strong> case <strong>of</strong><br />

ESCO approach)<br />

<strong>•</strong> Need to secure energy dem<strong>and</strong> <strong>in</strong> supply<br />
