Mosques are classified as one of the most attractive places for the Libyan people during prayer times, where ?electrical power is consumed extensively and converted into many energy types. Hot water is required for ablution during ?the cold season, which occupies 5 months per year, approximately, where electrical power is utilized to provide hot water ?demand. In this paper, the possibility of install solar water heaters in ten mosques in the city of Tripoli is studied, as the ?agreement between the General Authority of Awqaf and Islamic Affairs and CSERS states. Therefore, a detailed study is performed for site ?shading probability during the year using Climate Consultant 6.0 software, and Sketchup Make 2017. Furthermore, the solar ?water heating system is designed by (T*SOL Pro 5.5) design and simulation software. The resultant has illustrated that the employing ?of thermosyphon systems could? ?fail to fulfil water heating load in the studied mosques, due to the presence of the surrounding ?buildings shade among winter and the high water heating load of such crowded mosques. However, it is suggested to use central pumped ?solar water heating systems (forced circulation), which is able to provide high capacities with low electrical consumption. Moreover, the ?pumped systems are compatible with the conventional fuel powered systems.?
