Solar water heating systems

A Solar Water Heater is a device which provides hot water for bathing, washing, cleaning and Industrial applications using Solar Energy. Two types of Solar Water Heaters are available, one based on flat plate collectors and the other based on Evacuated tube collectors. Cost of solar water heater depends on size and type of system installed. Smallest size of a system is 100 liter per day that means it can deliver 100 liters of hot water in a day at 600 C which can serve for a family of 3-4 members and saves up to 1500 units of electricity in a year.

TSREDCO is undertaking wide awareness campaign on usage of solar water heaters with cost and subsidy details of MNRE to conserve the electricity by way utilizing the solar energy for heating the water for bathing and other purposes.
