Energy performance investigation of Energy-Plus Solar House integrated renewable energy systems

摘要

In order to realize the climate agenda in terms of reducing CO_2 emission in the buildings, beyond the zero energyhouse concept is necessary. This paper investigates and proposes the energy-plus solar house. The house has manyadvantages to add the renewable energy system. For reducing the cooling and heating load of the house, parametricanalysis for the building passive design was conducted and optimum passive design was found for minimize theenergy consumption. Using the PV and solar thermal system, the optimum renewable energy system designintegrated with the HVAC system was investigated. Consequently, the results showed that the proposed housecan produce over 40% more electric energy via the entire energy usage of the house integrating the PV and solarassisted air source heat pump system.
