The effectiveness of the integrated provision was further verified through two energy-saving scenarios, with energy reduction by 17.7% and 18.0% correspondingly as compared to the separate provision.
Through year-round dynamic simulation, it was found that the integrated provision could have annual primary energy saving of 13.5% against the separate provision.

The application result showed that the developed system was useful to support a design of the integrated provision of products and services.
Some tools enable authoring of designs, while other tools support sharing and commenting of learning design ideas, but none of them offers an integrated provision of technological features to support the work of design teams specifically.
In the integrated provision, all the solar collectors and a centralized hot water storage tank were collectively applied for both driving the absorption chiller and generating domestic hot water.
