A solar energy trap ( 10 ) includes a chamber ( 11 ) having inlet post ( 12 ), such that solar energy ( 13 ) entering the chamber ( 11 ) through the inlet port ( 12 ) is absorbed and reflected within the chamber ( 11 ) means until substantially all the solar energy ( 13 ) is absorbed by the chamber ( 11 ). Preferably, the inlet port ( 12 ) is arranged to cause photons of the solar energy ( 13 ) entering the chamber ( 11 ) to circulate substantially in a single direction within the chamber ( 11 ) until absorbed, such that on re-passing the inlet port ( 12 ) substantially no photons emerge from the inlet port ( 12 ).
