If, for example, you pre-heat your water in a tank using passive solar heating, then the cost of bringing up your water to usable temperature is significantly reduced when your water is pre-heated. Also, it is generally more efficient to heat a hot water tank for long term, constant usage, but when the sudden demand kicks in for a high volume of heated water, then it can be quite inefficient to build huge capacity into a conventional tank storage system, so a small storage system, with a high capacity tankless heater for peak loads is the way to go.
