ABSTRACT:
A method of storing thermal energy within solar energy storage cell comprising two materials of differing adsorption properties enclosed within an airtight container. The material having the higher adsorption for water is saturated with water at 70.degree. F. Upon exposure to solar energy, the temperature increases and the adsorbed water transfers to the material having the lower absorbtion. When the temperature decreases in the absence of solar energy, the water returns to the higher adsorption material giving off a substantial amount of heat in the form of heat of adsorption.
