As part of its commitment to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)—particularly Goal 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy), Goal 13 (Climate Action), and Goal 4 (Quality Education)—the Sustainable Development Team at the College of Engineering and Engineering Technologies at Al-Mustaqbal University has implemented a project to install a solar water heating system at the Imam Imran bin Ali Shrine. This initiative supports the adoption of renewable energy and reduces reliance on fossil fuels.

The project aims to:

Provide a sustainable source of hot water using solar energy, reducing the consumption of conventional energy sources.
Lower the carbon footprint by minimizing emissions associated with traditional heating systems.
Enhance hands-on learning for engineering students, allowing them to apply sustainable engineering concepts in real-world projects that benefit the community.
This initiative represents a significant step toward integrating green technology into infrastructure, contributing to energy sustainability, environmental engineering practices, and the transition to a low-carbon economy. Moreover, it reflects the university’s commitment to developing sustainable engineering solutions that enhance energy security, environmental protection, and innovation in renewable energy technologies to serve society.
