Dissemination of Solar Water Heating in Brazil and Mexico
The use of fossil fuels for cooking and water heating represents a major source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Latin America. One of the most technically viable and economically attractive ways of reducing fossil fuel consumption in home systems is solar water heating (SWH). The International Climate Initiative (IKI) supports projects aiming to foster the use of SWH systems on rooftops as a sustainable alternative to conventional water heating technologies.
