Abstract
A transparent thermal insulation arrangement for heating buildings with solar energy includes a glass plate, and absorber and an edge bond between the glass plate and the absorber. The absorber has an absorber plate which is inherently rigid and is assembled with the glass plate by the edge bond. An intermediate space is formed between the glass plate and the absorber plate and is filled with an inert gas. In addition, a space is formed between the absorber plate and the wall of the building which may be filled with air.
