“…Besides deriving results on the potentials of power-to-heat, several of the reviewed articles distinctly discuss model formulations [44,46,57,47,38,28,59,54,66,49,31,32,51,39,41,42,43,36,70]. Section 5 discusses some specific examples in more detail.…”

“…There are different ways to account for storage losses; either only stationary losses l stationary are considered [59,43,47,27,28], or stationary as well as dynamic losses l dynamic [54]. Patteeuw et al [43] separate stationary heat losses in two parts: one proportional to the energy actually stored, the other one proportional to the storage size.…”

“…This may already apply (i) without the use of additional heat storage [67,40], particularly in case district heating systems can be used [33,29,45,46,66,70]. Utilization of renewable surpluses generally improves if (ii) additional active or passive heat storage is available [34,52,61,48,51,37,60,40,42,63,53,64], or if (iii) flexible fuel switching facilitated by hybrid heating systems enables "virtual" energy storage [59,47].…”

Flexible bioenergy supply for balancing fluctuating renewables in the heat and power sector—a review of technologies and concepts

et al. 2015

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Today bioenergy plays a major role in the renewable energy provision, for heat and power and for liquid biofuels as well. With an increasing share of renewables on the one hand side and a limited availability of biomass on the other hand, the provision of bioenergy has to consider the demands of the future energy system with high shares of fluctuating wind and solar power. This includes new and improved technologies and concepts for biogas, biomethane, and liquid and solid biofuels, which are discussed in the following, while for the electricity sector, the demand for more flexible provision might take place in the years to come; for more flexible heat provision, the transition is expected in a longer time frame. For their market implementation adopted regulatory framework and price signals from electricity markets are necessary. Review

Storage is a key concept to cope with a growing supply of volatile renewable energy. Compared with genuine grid storage (power↔X), domestic heating and cooling, operated as flexible loads (power to heat), promises to lower infrastructure costs and offers potential for a short‐term demand response. Before designing new service markets, the true technical potential must be assessed. Herein, storage capacity is estimated by exploiting the entire thermally usable building mass as back‐end storage. Balancing power is determined from the steady‐state coincidence factor of buildings seen as thermostatically controlled load (TCL) populations. Results are reported for the residential and tertiary sectors in Germany by considering six classes of heating and cooling equipment. One advantage of the method is simplicity, which results in closed‐form estimates derived top‐down from nationwide and publicly available data on the building stock.
