Solar energy is abundantly available, pollution-free, safe, and reliable. Common solar-energy generation includes the use of photovoltaics (PV), concentrated solar power (CSP), and solar-chimney plants. A solar chimney comprises a solar-energy harvesting technique that uses a collector, chimney or a tower, and a turbine [4], [5].
