Efficient energy storage in residential buildings integrated with RESHeat system
The Renewable Energy System for Residential Building Heating and Electricity Production (RESHeat) system has been realized for heating and cooling residential buildings. The main components of the RESHeat system are a heat pump, photovoltaic modules, sun-tracking solar collectors and photovoltaic/thermal modules, an under-ground thermal energy storage unit, and a ground heat exchanger. One of the main novelties of the RESHeat system is efficient ground regeneration due to the underground energy storage unit. During a heating season, a large amount of heat is taken from the ground. The underground energy storage unit allows the restoration of ground heating capability and the heat pump's coefficient of performance (COP) to be kept high as possible for consecutive years. The paper presents an energy analysis for a residential building that is a RESHeat system demo site, along with integrating the RESHeat system with the building. The experimentally validated components coupled with the building model to achieve the system performance in TRNSYS software. The results show that the yearly average COP of the heat pump is 4.85 due to the underground energy storage unit. The RESHeat system is able to fully cover the heating demand of the building using renewable energy sources and an efficient underground energy storage system.
