A solar heater is unlike to work stable in this condition.

The Pearl River Delta region is often covered by a thick haze; could somewhere like this ever make wide use of solar power? -Translated by Echo Lee Sat, 22 Aug 2009 23:13:34 +0000 http://www.chinadialogue.net/article/summary/3222#comment-9230 http://www.chinadialogue.net/article/summary/3222#comment-9230 In my opinion, solar energy is better than wind energy for African countries. Though there is quite windy, it’s not very stable. The regions near the equator which are rich in sunshine are the ideal places to take advantage of solar energy resources. We are in the hope that some day there will be some solar panels on African’s roofs. -Translated by Echo Lee.
