The article describes daily and seasonal received radiation and emitted heat theoretical research results of two-axis tracked and non-tracked flat-plate solar collectors for domestic hot water heating systems in Latvia. It was determined that tracked collector can emit 44 % more heat per season than non-tracked. Price of the collector tracked device should not exceed more than 30% of non-tracked collector price.
