BILLY SOLAR: SCALABLE AND COST-EFFECTIVE SOLAR HEATING UNITS FOR INDUSTRY

摘要

Here we present preliminary results of the Billy Solar project, which pursues the goal of developing a fully configured and modular scalable solar heating system for industrial use at different production sites and for different processes. For this purpose, a "one size fits all" concept will be developed based on simulation together with collector manufacturers, software developers, application partners from industry and research institutes. The system consists primarily of solar thermal collectors and a heat storage. As an alternative to solar thermal, photovoltaics combined with heat pumps or possibly a combination of both approaches are investigated. Based on this, financing models are derived.
