Abstract: 
The energy demand is increasing day by day in present era and due to increasing the cost of energy by increasing the cost of fossil fuel. The fossil fuel is limited for the future and researchers are continuously working on new options for energy saving or other renewable option. The solar chimney is one of the most feasible retrofit for the buildings which operated by solar irradiance and saved the much of energy used in ventilation cooling and heating of building. The paper is reviewed the solar chimney with various integrated approaches, modeling, simulation, optimization and the techno-economic analysis. The work can be used for the future researchers in this area.
