Project Challenges
The Girls’ hostel at Punjab University needed help with the availability of hot water for its residents. The existing water heating system was either insufficient or unreliable, leading to discomfort and inconvenience for the hostel residents, particularly during cold weather. The hostel’s old water heating system, which depended on electricity or fossil fuels, used a lot of energy and increased utility prices. Due to this inefficiency, using non-renewable energy sources has become more expensive and detrimental to the environment.
