uses the sun's energy to heat water. It uses a solar collector to gather heat, which is then
transferred to a water tank through a circulating pump.
Solar electricity, unlike natural resources such as natural gas or fossil fuels, is free, which
aids in energy consumption. When there isn't enough light, though, a backup heating system
is necessary. Solar water heaters range in price from $3,000 to $7,000 for a fully integrated
system. In the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors, this is frequently utilized.
