The article presents the results of studying the possibility of using solar collectors in the small business sector, in particular, to meet the needs of hot water supply for a medium size hotel located in Tashkent. The research methodology and the hot water supply system with its technical characteristics were described in detail. The study used the f-method to determine part of the load on hot water covered by solar collectors. An economic analysis of the proposed system is carried out using Life Cycle Saving method (LCS). The special computer program is developed based on both methods to simulate thermal and economic performance of proposed system. Results show that in spite of high level of solar irradiance in Tashkent region, installing and exploiting solar water heater system seems to be uneconomical. Due to relatively low price of conventional fuel, natural gas and electricity, investing in solar water heating system at all range of solar collector area is not economically attractive.
