The concept of sustainable development was never contested since 1987 when it was firstly introduced. However, the measures required to implement this concept were not quickly identified and were even more slowly implemented in the development strategies, all over the world. The main reasons are relying in the complexity and specificity of these measures that are mainly focusing on the energy required to feed the production processes, the built environment, the agriculture and in any other activities in any society. This specificity depends on objective factors, as the availability of certain natural resources that can be used to produce energy, mainly renewable energy sources, but also on the features of the implementation location and of the implementing society. This is why only recently the sustainable development implementation was practically approached, as e.g. by planning and developing sustainable energy buildings or sustainable communities. In these applications, the role of solar energy is highly important, as this is a cost-free energy source that is readily available in any location on the Earth. However, the daily and seasonal variability of the solar energy, that does not necessarily follow the rhythm of the humans’ life and the associated energy demand, raises significant barriers in implementing and operating a sustainable built environment based only on solar energy conversion systems, in any location in the world. Thus, solutions have to be identified to solve specific issues that can support the development of a built environment with a high solar energy share and these solutions have to be feasible, affordable and well suited to communities with different development levels and different levels of financial resources. Considering the real need for optimized solutions based on solar energy conversion systems implemented in the built environment, the authors of this book developed a complex material, focusing on the mostly used systems (photovoltaic and solar-thermal systems) and on the specific problems that are faced when implementing these in various locations. Further on, case studies are analysed as these can be further improved and replicated to get a positive result in the quest for sustainability.
