Building-integrated SWH has led to the implementation of a wide range of projects in collaboration with architects and real-estate developers. This work is well regarded in the construction sector in terms of design, construction, and quality control. – REN21

•What’s in it for me?
•Warmth
•2-2.4 million tons of CO2 reductions from domestic solar hot water heating in the Northeast (space heating not included!)
•Freeing up multi-use, processed fuels for other uses
•How do I start?
•Regionwide final energy analysis
•Final energy targets
•Integrated renewable heating and cooling roadmap
•Basic incentives
•Where do I go from there?
•Renewable heat RPS (e.g. Arizona, New Hampshire, Australia)
•Construction mandates (e.g. Spain, Germany, Hawaii)
•Big time incentives (Germany: $500 million annually in grants)
•District heating and renewable CHP
