The integration of renewable energy sources into these systems plays a crucial role in reducing both energy costs and environmental impacts. In this study, a hybrid system was designed to enable the efficient utilization of solar energy in space heating systems. Data obtained from the system were processed using an Arduino board to develop a control mechanism. The system can be remotely controlled by users via the Arduino IoT Cloud platform. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the designed system, an experimental setup was established. The application results were obtained in Hakkari Province over several days and at three different operational levels. Transitions between levels occurred either automatically, based on ambient temperature, or manually by the user. At Stage 3, the highest temperature achieved was approximately 43°C, indicating that maximum benefit from solar energy was obtained. This system has the potential to significantly contribute to future energy management in buildings and provide sustainable solutions to energy challenges.}, number={25}, publisher={Adıyaman Üniversitesi}
