This paper investigates the performance of a ground source heat pump that is coupled with a photovoltaic system to provide cooling and heating demands of a zero-energy residential building. Exergy and sustainability analyses have been conducted to evaluate the exergy destruction rate and SI of different compartments of the hybrid system. The effects of monthly thermal load variations on the performance of the hybrid system are investigated. The hybrid system consists of a vertical ground source heat exchanger, rooftop photovoltaic panels, and a heat pump cycle. Exergetic efficiency of the solar-geothermal heat pump system does not exceed 10 percent, and most exergy destruction takes place in photovoltaic panel, condenser, and evaporator. Although SI of PV system remains constant during a year, SI of GSHP varies depending on cooling and heating mode. The results also show that utilization of this hybrid system can reduce CO2emissions by almost 70 tons per year.

Cogeneration System

Recent energy and economic analysis of a cogeneration system has been implemented by a manual calculation that is based on monthly thermal loads of buildings. In this study, a cogeneration system modeling validation with a detail building energy simulation, eQUEST, for a building energy and cost prediction has been implemented. By analyzing the hourly building electricity and thermal loads, it enables designers to decide proper cogeneration system capacity and to estimate more reliable building energy consumption. eQUEST also verified economical and environmental benefits when the heat pump system is integrated with the cogeneration system because the mechanical system configuration benefits from the high efficiency heat pump system while avoiding the building electricity demand increase. Economic analysis such as LCC (Life Cycle Cost) method is carried out to verify economical benefits of the system by applying actual utility rates of KEPCO (Korea Electricity Power COmpany) and KOGAS (KOrea GAS company). As results, the proposed system consumed approximately 40% less energy than the Alt-2 in terms of source energy. LCC analysis results also show that the proposed system could save about 10–14% of energy cost during the life cycle compared to the Alt-1 and Alt-2. It could save 6–7% of the total life cycle cost and it is equivalent to around 1–1.3 billion Won in cost.

Thermal Evaporator

In this research, a photovoltaic-thermal collector assisted heat pump has been developed and tested its performance under the tropical climatic conditions of Malaysia. The refrigerants such as, R134a and R1234yf were selected based on its thermodynamic and thermo-physical properties. The temperature of the photovoltaic module was theoretically predicted under the influence of tube diameter, tube spacing and refrigerant mass flow rate. Further, the energy performance of the photovoltaic-thermal evaporator and the heat pump system are investigated experimentally. Finally, the economical feasibility of the photovoltaic-thermal collector evaporator was assessed for the period of 20 years. The results showed that, the tube spacing and diameter of the copper tubes used in the photovoltaic-thermal evaporator/collector using R134a and R1234yf were optimized to 80 mm and 12.7 mm, respectively. It was observed that, during the clear sunny day, the average photovoltaic module temperature was reduced to 30.9 °C under the influence of panel cooling using refrigerant. The output of the panel was enhanced by 21%–44% with increase in solar radiation from 400 W/m2 to 1000 W/m2. The coefficient of performance of the heat pump was varied from 4.8 to 6.84 with an average coefficient of performance of 5.8 during clear sunny days. The life cycle economic analysis indicated that, the photovoltaic-thermal collector evaporator assisted heat pump has a payback period of 3 years, whereas the reference photovoltaic system has a payback period of 8 years.

This paper discusses the use of modern and effective heating systems, using fossil fuels and renewable energy sources on the example of a comparative analysis of a gas boiler and heat pump for a single-family building. The aim of the work was to conduct a comparative analysis of heating systems in terms of energy, economy and ecology. The concepts of heating systems based on a gas boiler and a heat pump are proposed. An economic analysis based on the LCC and ecological method was carried out, related to the equivalent emission, in order to compare the degree of environmental nuisance of the proposed heat sources. For the building in question, a more advantageous solution was the use of a system based on a condensing gas boiler. The economic analysis shows that in the assumed life cycle (20 years), the total cost for a heating system based on a gas boiler is lower than in the case of a heat pump by 11%. Also, the initial costs in this variant are lower by nearly half compared to the heat pump system. Environmental analyzes have shown lower annual emissions of pollutants and a 6-fold lower equivalent emission for a gas-fired heating system.
