One of the world's oldest civilizations - with the worst air pollution and the coldest capital city - will employ cutting-edge technology from the newest UC campus starting in February. Professor Roland Winston, who leads the UC Merced-based UC Solar Institute, just returned from a trip to Ulaanbaatar (UB), Mongolia's capital. He met with the owner of Mongolia National University (MNU), a 15-year-old institution with about 9,000 students, to discuss installing a solar-thermal unit on one of the campus buildings to generate 3 kilowatts of steam heat for a portion of the campus. The thermo-solar unit is being installed on a university rooftop. In January, Bennett Widyolar traveled to UB to participate and direct construction and installation of a 4,5 square meter array of XCPC on the MNU building. The primary source of heat in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia is burning coal, and, more recently, chopped-up tires - both highly pollutant.
