Abstract
The present review summarized the application of renewable solar energy in various cooling techniques to produce thermal
comfort of the built environment. Solar assisted cooling is the newer sustainable cooling technology which can be used to develop
thermally stable built environment within residential and commercial buildings. Furthermore, the same is environment friendly and
energy efficient. It is stronger tool to fight the devil of global warming. It may also be used for air conditioning in medical emergency
in remote areas where the electricity supply is not available. There is an ameliorated interest in the progressive development
and elaborated use of solar assisted cooling technologies due to their various economic and impressive environmental benefits,
enabling freely available renewable solar energy to be used for applications such as district cooling system networks. Compared to
traditional systems this creates new possibilities for utilizing low temperature based naturally available free energy..
