Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

Dear authors, I would like to note the following suggestions and comments for your paper

1. The authors do not disclose the concept of "Sustainable Accomplishment". This phrase appears in the title of the paper. However, it is not clear how "Nanofluids-Laden Solar Flat Plate Collectors" ensure the "Sustainable Accomplishment" of energy systems.

2. Despite the fact that the article should include a technical and economic analysis, based on the title of the article, the economic aspects of the study are very poorly represented.

3. The article does not include the "Materials and Methods" section.

4. I would also like to see the "Discussion" section.

In General, the authors have done a great job.

Reviewer 2 Report

Interesting review article.

Contains both historical and current literature sources. The authors themselves also have achievements in the described field.

There is a certain lack of description of the application of the described devices, but this is not necessary in the review article and in my opinion it does not require any special supplement.
