Innovative passive heat-storage walls improve thermal performance and energy efficiency in Chinese solar greenhouses …
Until now, rammed-earth and fireclay brick have been two conventional solar-thermal-energy storage materials used to build solar greenhouses. Although using a thicker rammed-earth wall provides better thermal properties, it results in low-efficiency land use (Bai et al., 2016, Zhang et al., 2012, Yang et al., 2009).).

Active Solar Heating | Department of Energy
Active Solar Heating. Active solar heating systems use solar energy to heat a fluid -- either liquid or air -- and then transfer the solar heat directly to the interior space or to a storage system for later use. If the solar system cannot provide adequate space heating, an auxiliary or back-up system provides the additional heat.
