The integration of renewable energy into existing energy infrastructure plays a significant role for promoting sustainable development, but it lacks the certain facets of comprehensive feasibility analysis regarding technical, economic, and environmental aspects. This study focuses on...

Present work is focused on building a TRNSYS simulation model of solar water heating (SWH) system using heat pipe evacuated tubes, hybridized with conventional fuel (i.e., natural gas) backup to provide uninterrupted thermal energy supply. An experimental facility was developed to validate the...
