Optimal operation of a multi vector district energy system in the UK

posted on 2018-05-03, 12:49 authored by Michele Tunzi, Candy He, David AllinsonDavid Allinson, Kevin LomasKevin LomasThe large price drop in solar PV and electrical batteries offer new opportunities for optimizing district energy plants, but requires a more complex daily operation of these plants. Solar PV production used locally by a ground source heat pump (GSHP) with a minimal use of the national grid is one opportunity. Even if, for the benefit of the GSHP, the share of electricity for boosting the temperatures of district heating water goes up when lowering forward temperatures in the network down to as low as 45 °C, the overall operational income is improved.
