the operating surface is a key operational factor to take into consideration to achieve higher efficiency when operating solar photovoltaic system. Proper cooling can improve the electric efficiency and decrease the rate of cell degradation with time, resulting in maximization of the life span of photovoltaic modules. The excessive heat removed by the cooling system used in domestic, commercial or industrial applications. Various cooling methods available for PV cells Such as Active and Passive cooling system. In this paper use various cooling methods for PV panel. Just like it heat pipe, floating, PCM used in back side of PV panel, evaporative cooling for PV panel.
The ground source cooling system is about methods of using the ground in a heat pump to warm and cool a system close to the average surface temperature of a location. Ground source cooling system uses the earth or ground water or both as the source of heat in the winter and as the sink for the heat removed from the home in the summer. Heat is removed from the earth through a liquid, such as ground water or an antifreeze solution, upgrade by the heat pump & transfer to indoor air during summer month, the process is reversed & heat is extracted to the earth through the
ground water or antifreeze solution.
Solar water heating (SWH) is the conversion of sunlight into renewable energy for water heating using a solar thermal collector. Solar water heating systems comprise various technologies that are used worldwide increasingly.
In a "close-coupled" SWH system the storage tank is horizontally mounted immediately above the solar collectors on the roof. No pumping is required as the hot water naturally rises into the tank through thermosiphon flow.

A Complete Presenetation on "SOLAR WATER HEATER" By Himanshu Kumarrajaricky
The most emerging system in the field of utilization of solar energy by saving money with low payback period. Water heating technology is the old age technology but using solar energy as a energy source is viable and ecofriendly.
An attempt to spread a general awarness among the populace on basics of systems, taking the mystery out and Keeping it simply simple.
We are blessed with Solar Energy in abundance at no cost. The solar radiation incident on the surface of the earth can be conveniently utilized for the benefit of human society. One of the popular devices that harness the solar energy is solar hot water system (SHWS).
A solar water heater consists of a collector to collect solar energy and an insulated storage tank to store hot water. The solar energy incident on the absorber panel coated with selected coating transfers the heat to the riser pipes underneath the absorber panel.
The water passing through the risers get heated up and is delivered the storage tank.
The re-circulation of the same water through absorber panel in the collector raises the temperature to 80 C (Maximum) in a good sunny day. The total system with solar collector, storage tank and pipelines is called solar hot water system.

Analytical approach of thermosyphon solar domestic hotGaaliche Nesrine
Abstract—An efficient and simple simulation approach for thermosyphon solar water heaters has been
developed and compared with experimental data. This approach, valid for solar-only systems, gives the ability
to link the system main design and constructional parameters with the expected energy output through an
analytical determination of the coefficients of the characteristic input–output equation of the system. The
proposed methodology can be used not only for energy optimization of the system in the design phase but also
for evaluation of test results of an existing system in order to improve it further. 2002 Elsevier Science

A case study on energy savings in air conditioning system by heat recovery us...eSAT Journals
Abstract In air conditioning facilities with high outside air requirements such as cleanroom air conditioning systems, considerable energy savings is possible by heat recovery using heat pipe heat exchanger (HPHX).The literature review indicated that the annual energy saving analysis of air conditioning system with HPHX for Indian climatic conditions has not been performed. The paper investigates the possible energy savings using HPHX for heat recovery in air conditioning system for a process air conditioning facility in Pune city, India. The impact of number of rows of HPHX and variations in the operating air conditions on the savings in cooling coil capacity is presented in this paper. The paper also reveals the comparative analysis of annual energy savings with number of rows of HPHX for Pune weather conditions. The application of heat pipe heat exchanger for energy savings in air conditioning system is strongly recommended.

This panel offers a unique discussion about the remaining challenges facing green energy innovators working to directly compete with conventional power sources in Michigan. Once green power becomes more economical than traditional sources, even considering initial ROI, the market will open up and it will become a new standard building energy system.
WASTE HEAT RECOVERY IN DOMESTIC REFRIGERATION SYSTEM IN THE APPLICATION OF WA...Journal For Research
Heat is the energy, so energy saving is one of the key matters for the protection of global environment. Heat also radiated from our domestic refrigerator. This waste heat from refrigerator will affect the environmental because as heat in the environment will increases it will cause global warming. So it is necessary that a significant effort should be made for conserving energy through waste heat recovery too. So An attempt has been made to utilize waste heat from condenser of refrigerator. This heat can be used for various of domestic and industrial purposes. In minimum constructional, maintenance and running cost, this system is very useful for domestic purpose. It is valuable alternative approach to increase overall efficiency and reuse the waste heat. The study has shown that such a system is technically feasible and economical. This system is a cabin that we are going to install over the head of the simple refrigerator, this cabin will be an arrangement of coils that will work as a heat exchanger for reuse of waste heat. These coils are hot coils of condenser of the refrigerator that will be modified and will put in the cabin. It can serve the purpose of cooking, geysers etc. Besides, the refrigerator may be used as conventional refrigerator. Further COP will also increase. Heat rejection may occur directly to the air in the case of a conventional household domestic refrigerator having air-cooled condenser. This system rejected less heat to the environment so it is safer in environmental aspects also.

• Established in 1988 by brothers Patrick and Daniel Conway,
Great Lakes Brewing Company became the first microbrewery
in the state of Ohio and today remains Ohio's most celebrated
and award-winning brewer of lagers and ales.
The care that goes into the beer resonates from a
commitment to the community and environment,
otherwise known as the "Triple Bottom Line" - to
engage in economic, social and environmental
practices that achieve a sustainable, yet
profitable, business. These include:
Reducing, reusing and recycling
Changing natural resource use from "Take, Make,
Waste" to "Take, Make, Remake"
Implementing efficient energy practices
Investing in the community through non-profit
organizations
Supporting sustainable urban renewal projects
3. Case Study

• The Victorian building at 2516 Market Avenue that houses the
Great Lakes Brewing Company Brewpub was established circa
1865 and became a popular watering hole for Cleveland's
legal professionals and tradesmen. Its most famous patron
was Eliot Ness, former leader of Chicago's "Untouchables"
and the man credited with taking down Al Capone's gang.
As lifelong supporters of environmental causes, the
Conway brothers have incorporated "zero waste
initiatives" into day to day operations. "While we're
strong proponents of operating a manufacturing
enterprise that is environmentally friendly, we also
realize that it has to make financial sense.

• The Brewpub, Gift Shop and Office area is actually three
historic buildings merged: The Market Tavern, McClean's Feed
& Seed Company and the Elton Building.
Above the Brewpub are two facilities known as the Market
Room and the Rockefeller Room, which served as law offices
for a young John D. Rockefeller before he got his start with
Standard Oil.
