Solar thermal energy has been adopted in medium and long‐term energy strategies within EU countries for
increasing the energy efficiency of buildings. In this context, the overall objective of this project consists in
developing an innovative high performance and cost effective hybrid system (solar heat and electrical power). The
initial application is to be implemented in residential buildings for on‐site electricity and heat generation using
solar thermal energy. The proposed technology is expected to deliver 60% of domestic energy requirements
(heating and domestic hot water) and provide 20% reduction in energy costs and greenhouse gas emissions
compared to the best existing low carbon energy technologies. A benchmark on the energy demand for the different
types of residential buildings in Europe serves as reference scenario to evaluate the potential applicability of the
different existing renewable technologies and to establish a comparative framework in terms of quantitative values.
Thus, the specific aim of this study consists in performing a state‐of‐the‐art on the different building typologies,
which can host this technology, and their energy demands for heating and domestic hot water, as well as their
associated CO2 emissions.
This study has received funding from European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement Nº723596 (Innova MicroSolar) and Nº 657466 (INPATH‐TES). The work is partially funded by the Spanish government ENE2015‐64117‐ C5‐1‐R (MINECO/FEDER) and ENE2015‐64117‐C5‐3‐R (MINECO/FEDER). GREA is certified agent TECNIO in the category of technology developers from the Government of Catalonia. The authors would like to thank the Catalan Government for the quality accreditation given to their research group (2014 SGR 123). Alvaro de Gracia would like to thank Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad de España for Grant Juan de la Cierva, FJCI‐2014‐19940. |
