Original design specification
The proposed solar thermal system should provide at least 50% of the annual hot water energy needs required to heat 7 000 litres of water from the inlet temperature, listed in Table 2, to 85°C. This may also be regarded as the solar fraction for the hot water storage tank:

So what's the obvious benefit then….?
Paraffin fuel cost vs. Solar fuel cost
Solar energy remains free, for life
SLIDE 17
Further benefits
- Diversified energy, more security
- Fuel is free, forever
- No fuel storage required
- No tax?
- No delivery fee or infrastructure, labour
- Reduced run time for conventional heating:
- Lower maintenance costs
- Longer service life
