As healthcare facilities strive to reduce carbon emissions and energy costs while ensuring uninterrupted hot water supply, solar thermal technology is becoming an increasingly popular solution. One prime example is the Liaocheng Hejiyia Hospital in Shandong Province, China, where a high-performance solar hot water system has been installed to meet the hospital's daily demand.
Location: Liaocheng, Shandong, China
Facility: Hejiyia Hospital
System Type: Solar hot water system with rooftop vacuum tube collectors
Daily Hot Water Capacity: 80 tons
The system includes a large array of solar vacuum tube collectors installed on the hospital rooftop, optimized for year-round high-efficiency heat capture. Hot water is stored in insulated stainless-steel storage tanks and supplied to various departments including patient wards, operating rooms, and kitchens.
Key features of the system:
🌞 Designed for 24/7 hot water supply with solar as primary and electric/gas backup
🔋 Integrated thermal storage to handle peak usage hours
⚙️ Automated temperature control and circulation pumps for consistent delivery
📉 Reduces over 100,000 kWh of grid electricity annually
Hospitals consume large volumes of hot water daily. By installing a solar hot water system for hospitals, facilities can reduce operational costs, minimize maintenance risks, and improve energy independence. In addition, solar thermal systems support green hospital initiatives and national energy-saving policies.
In the case of Hejiyia Hospital, the system delivers:
✔️ 80 tons of hot water daily
✔️ Reduced carbon footprint
✔️ Long-term economic savings
✔️ Safe and hygienic hot water solution for medical use
