+**Passive solar** is a building design approach that harnesses the sun's energy directly for heating and cooling without mechanical systems. It uses elements like south-facing windows to capture [Solar Energy](/wiki/solar_energy) and [Thermal Mass](/wiki/thermal_mass) to store and slowly release heat, creating comfortable indoor environments naturally. This method minimizes energy consumption by working with, not against, natural climatic forces.
