    The present technical project has as its central research objective the design and construction of an energy converter that allows to transform the electric voltage of the batteries that is generated by a system of unconventional resources consisting of a combination of photovoltaic solar panels and a wind generator, to obtain thermal energy used in the process of heating water for domestic use. The geographic and environmental conditions of the white river community as a cold climate prevails, generated the need to install a water preheating system consisting of flat plate thermal panels and vacuum tubes driven by the solar radiation intensity of the area and connected directly to the water supply for exploiting the potential of volumetric flow. The design of the converter components was made based on the technical characteristics of the electrical potential installed in the white river community to increase the efficiency of the water heating processes guaranteed a low energy consumption through drive depending on the hot water requirement. The purpose of the operation tests is to verify and sustain that the converter can operate continuously and without interruptions and reach high levels of efficiency during all times of the year considering the climatic conditions to which it is exposed in the community, the climate variation as a function of time is quantified with the data obtained in the area by previous investigations in order to make projections that allow to know the trend of behavior of parameters such as radiation. Finally, the performance tests were carried out by taking data in the area through the control and monitoring system that allowed the collection of values with respect to the increase in the magnitude of the water temperature, and the operation of the converter was guaranteed throughout the year by means of projections with reference to previous bibliographic data taken from the irradiance of the area, thus demonstrating the high efficiency of operation of the project under all conditions likely to arise in the area.
