Swedish Central Solar Heating Plant for 2000 Dwellings; a Feasibility Study
Sweden is giving considerable attention to the concept of collecting and storing solar heat at a central site, for distribution to groups of houses and flats. The concept will be demonstrated first by a plant built at Studsvik due for commissioning during 1978. This consists of an insulated excavated pit filled with hot water. It is covered by an insulation lid on which concentrating solar collectors are mounted. The insulation lid can be swivelled horizontally to enable the collectors to trace the sun. This demonstration plant will supply all the heating needed for an associated office building, all the year round. Two larger versions of solar heating plants for schemes with about 50 houses each have been decided on at Lambohov and Ingelstad. The Lambohov plant is based on hot water stored in an insulated pit excavated in rock and can be regarded in several aspects as a follow-up of the Studsvik project. It is fitted with heat pumps to recover residual low temperature heat from the store. The Ingelstad plant will use a concrete hot water storage tank above ground and separately mounted concentrating solar collectors.
