BACKGROUND
[0002] Background description includes information that may be useful in understanding the present invention. It is not an admission that any of the information provided herein is prior art or relevant to the presently claimed invention, or that any publication specifically or implicitly referenced is prior art.
[0003] Global warming has caused rapid increase in temperature affecting day to day lives of human and non-human entities. Availability of drinking water at required temperature is also affected due to the increasing temperature of surrounding causing challenges for human entities of different geographical areas. Variations in temperature according to weather and seasons have a significant impact on the drinking water. Lack of electricity can further create problems for maintaining the drinking water temperature, where the drinking water temperature can be maintained with help of non renewable energy resources. Therefore, renewable energy resources are required to maintain and avail drinking water at required or optimum temperature. Also, continuous monitoring of such renewable resources is required to save energy.
[0004] Existing solutions can include temperature controlling devices, however, such devices are energy consuming and are costly. Many solutions are used with aim to reduce energy consumption but they may aid in increasing pollution and reducing non-renewable sources, hence not preferable. Other solutions can include renewable energy resources, and similar modules. Another solution can include a geothermal heat exchanger to exchange heat between water and earth surroundings and provide drinking water at optimum temperature, though the geothermal heat exchanger does not completely eliminate use of non renewable energy resources.
[0005] There is a need to overcome above mentioned problems of prior art by bringing a solution that completely replaces non conventional use of energy resources with renewable energy resources and is reliable and cost effective.
