This report describes a solar heating plant connected to a newly-built residential area, consisting of 52 single-family houses in Ingelstad. The most important problems to be investigated in this project are how higher-temperature solar collectors (i.e. operating at higher temperatures than ordinary flat plate solar collectors) can be utilized for systems incorporating seasonal storage of solar energy, and how the design and choice of materials in the heat store are affected when water at a temperature near that of boiling is used as the heat storage medium.
