12 Feature of Solar Thermal System
Solar thermal system vs. PV system
z Solar thermal system z Heat load: Hot water heating, space heating and cooling z Solar system: Tightly connected with Heat Load z Heat load influenced by weather condition and behavior of the occupants
z PV system z Electricity, for all purpose z Grid connected system: sell and buy the electric power

Example of Energy Requirement in Buildings in Japan Residential House Energy Use in Residential House Cooling 46 GJ/family for a year 46GJ/family for year Cooling Space heating 2% DHW 35% Lights+Applinaces Lights and Appliances
28%
Space Heating
Hot water Heating 35%
- Hot water heating and Space heating, Major heat requirements - Solar heating to reduce hot water heating energy - Building thermal insulation and solar energy to reduce space heating energy 26
13 Solar Thermal System for Today, Tomorrow z Integration z Integration with Heat loads and Building service systems z Integration with Building thermal system and Architectural design z Standardization z Standardization of Systems and Components z Standardization of Design and Evaluation Methods z Cost effectiveness z Reduce Installation cost z Improvement of Pay back period Including Finance, Subsidy
