Solar heating works by getting the sunlight in order to make the solar system work, and by doing that it increases energy which is thermal energy.

Hope this helps! :D

Answer:

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.

hope this helps : )
