The article presents a plan for using solar energy to heat water. The plan considers not only functionality of the solar panels but also considers aesthetics, energy performance, and economic and ecological considerations, too. The authors explain that 20% of energy consumption in Europe is used for heating water. Solar water heating systems are a good renewable energy source in residential building and its use will reduce dependence on fossil fuels as well as reduce carbon dioxide emissions. The authors present a comprehensive plan for converting residential buildings to solar water heating.
This article presents a good solution for homeowners wishing to reduce their carbon imprint. It goes into a little more detail about how it actually would be built than necessary for my research purposes but overall, the general idea is excellent for showing homeowners how they can individually participate in reducing carbon dioxide emissions., V. Kosoric, and A. Krsti´c FurundĖzic. "General model of solar water heating system integration in residential building."
