Energy efficiency improvement of solar water heating systems – An IoT based commissioning methodology

This paper studies a mechanism to investigate and to improve the energy efficiency of a solar water heating system (SWH) in a hospital building located in Singapore. We utilize the data collected from Internet-of-Things (IoT) to gain information on different environmental and operational aspects of the considered system, that determine opportunities for improving the efficiency of various sub-systems of the SWH, and develop control strategies...
