Integration of solar plants into energy systems in apartment residential buildings

Abstract

Non-traditional renewable energy resources (solar radiation, wind energy, etc.), alternative thermal and electric generators have incontestable positive qualities in comparison with fossil fuel (natural gas, coal, fuel oil), classical systems: relative environmental friendliness, vast total reserves, low operational costs, reliability, ease of management. The scale of their implementation in the Central Black Earth Region can be limited by high initial capital investments, the value of the energy resource, and low awareness of the population. The article presents the results of modeling solar plants functioning during their integration into traditional energy systems of apartment residential buildings. In the article we demonstrate technical and economic indicators of projected and modernized engineering heating services in the city of Voronezh. The technically viable period of use is spring-summer-autumn. Economic indicators put solar systems into the experimental category.
