According to a new study from LUT University, domestic water heating costs may be reduced by combining rooftop PV with geothermal heat pumps. Scientists developed a control method to minimize these costs by taking advantage of cheap spot market electricity and maximized PV power generation, as well as considering heat demand, PV generation forecasts, and heat pump efficiency.Researchers from the Lappeenranta University of Technology (LUT) have outlined a series of control methods for domestic hot water (DHW) heating produced by a ground source heat pump (GSHP), in combination with a rooftop PV ...Den vollständigen Artikel lesen ...
