For purposes of this subchapter—
(1) the term “solar heating”, with respect to any building, means the use of solar energy to meet such portion of the total heating needs of such building (including hot water), or such portion of the needs of such building for hot water (where its remaining heating needs are met by other methods), as may be required under performance criteria prescribed by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development utilizing the services of the Director of the National Institute of Standards and Technology, and in consultation with the Secretary of Energy, and the Administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration;
(2) the terms “solar heating and cooling” and “combined solar heating and cooling”, with respect to any building, mean the use of solar energy to provide both such portion of the total heating needs of such building (including hot water) and such portion of the total cooling needs of such building, or such portion of the needs of such building for hot water (where its remaining heating needs are met by other methods) and such portion of the total cooling needs of a building, as may be required under performance criteria prescribed by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development utilizing the services of the Director of the National Institute of Standards and Technology, and in consultation with the Secretary of Energy, and the Administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, and such term includes cooling by means of nocturnal heat radiation, by evaporation, or by other methods of meeting peakload energy requirements at nonpeakload times;
(3) the term “residential dwellings” includes previously occupied and new single family and multifamily dwellings, mobile homes, and publicly assisted housing owne

TITLE 42—THE PUBLIC HEALTH AND WELFARE
§ 5502
heating and cooling technologies can be expe-
dited by testing under carefully controlled
conditions; and
(11) commercial application of solar heating
and combined solar heating and cooling tech-
nologies can be expedited by early commercial
demonstration under practical conditions.
(b) It is therefore declared to be the policy of
the United States and the purpose of this sub-
chapter to provide for the demonstration within
a three-year period of the practical use of solar
heating technology, and to provide for the devel-
opment and demonstration within a five-year
period of the practical use of combined heating
and cooling technology.
