The Bhutan Department of Energy (DoE), supported by the Austrian Development Agency, is actively promoting Solar Water Heating Systems (SWHS) in the building sector. In an initial phase of implementation, following the installation of SWHS, encountered issues affecting system design and functionality. To address these challenges, the DoE engaged AEE-INTEC to provide intensive training and assess existing SWHS systems. The primary objective was to enhance the skills and knowledge of users, beneficiaries, installers, and implementers for sustainable SWHS operation. Through several workshops and installations, the project has successfully contributed to Bhutan’s energy diversification goals <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":9639,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-9640","project","type-project","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nSoltrain Buthan -
