Reasons for the use of Reasons for the use of solar energy for heating solar energy for heating and coolingand cooling Reduces operational costs of facilities Reduces dependency on fossil energy
supply and/or electricityContributes to a healthy environment
by cooling without the use of toxic gases
Use of renewable energy contributes to the reduction of CO2 emissions

user of installed solar an collectors with annual sun radiation* of 1500 kWh/m2
GR is followed closely by Germany & Austria with an annual radiation of only950 – 1200 kWh/m2

The reduction of CO2 emissions was agreed at Kyoto** & adopted by the EU
50% of the green house effect iscaused by burning of fossil fuels (CO2)and 22% by CFCs & HFC gasesused in conventional cooling
A reduction can only be achieved if;– renewable energy systems are used – cooling systems are used which do
not use toxic gases (absorption cooling)

Components in the Components in the utilisation of solar energy utilisation of solar energy facilitating coolingfacilitating cooling Solar collectors achieve yields up to 0,6 kW/m2
Modern heat exchangers have low heat losses Use of large buffer storage tanks to retain
collected energy Separating sanitary water from buffer water Absorption cooling requiring heat > 80oC which
is achievable through solar energy in summer Tele-monitoring of the controls (also from
abroad) to optimise efficiency of plant
10
The absorption cooling The absorption cooling cyclecycle
…is similar to a vapour compression cycle in that it relies on 3 basic
principals;
1. When liquid is heated it vaporizes (boils) and when gas is cooled it condenses
2. Lowering the pressure of a liquid reduces its boiling point
3. Heat flows from warmer to cooler mediums
11
absorption cooling–absorption cooling–continuedcontinued Instead of mechanically compressing a
gas, the absorption cooling relies on a thermo-chemical compressor
Two different fluids are used that dissolve easily in one another;– water under a vacuum as refrigerant – ammonia or LiBr* as an absorbent
The refrigerant (water) can change from liquid to vapour state easily and is circulated through the system driven by the heat of the solar plant >80 degrees
*Lithium Bromide
12
The Environmental The Environmental BenefitsBenefits The ammonia used in the closed cooling
system is safe, odourless and non-toxic Ammonia carries no risk to the ozone
layer The hot water heated by the sun used as
the primary energy source carries no risk to the environment
Should a support* energizer be required, waste product combustion can be used as well as any conventional energy source such as gas, oil or electricity
*during periods of reduced solar yield

Indicative cost for a Indicative cost for a complete solar complete solar heating/cooling plant…heating/cooling plant…Cost per m2 usable area is ~200 €*, for; Design, commissioning of plant (consultant
services) Solar plant for heating/cooling made up of;
– the required solar collectors (~15% of usable floor area)– heat exchanger and pumps– buffer reservoir with separate boiler for sanitary water – absorption cooling machine with cooling tower – fan coil units to dissipate the energy – Waste combustion, gas or oil fired support system

……noting that; noting that; the herein described system is hydraulic
as it is more efficient to air based systems to transport the collected solar energy*
all air ventilation needs are to be dealt with separately which will increase the cost of the plant by up to 50 €/m2 floor area
the energy required to heat or cool the circulated air can be supplied by the described system at no extra cost
The square meter price for solar collectors do not exceed 200 €/m2 with yield of 0,6 kW/m2

Situation in Kosovo…Situation in Kosovo… KEK* produces approx. 3 GW of electricity by
coal per annum (losses not considered) It is assumed that about 2,2 M people live
Kosovo in about 280 T households That puts the per head consumption at 1,364
kW/per annum against Portugal** with 4TkW/a Consumption per household 10,714 kW/annum Noting that about 30% of the population live
in urban centres… It is assumed that people living in towns will
consume double to the pop living in villages
* Kosovo Energy Cooperation
**least consumer in EU
19
Household consumption…Household consumption… of people living in towns could be as high as
25,000 kWh* per annum per household This amounts to an energy need of up to 250
kW/h/m2 usable floor area assuming a 100 m2 dwelling, against current EU needs of 100 kW/h/m2 (in similar climatic conditions)
This energy need can be reduces by 20%, if;– the facility receives thermal insulation (external)– the facility receives air tight windows / doors– the windows / doors receive thermal glazing – the roof / basement are sufficiently insulated

kWh/m2a
Energy consumption of a medium sized house should be reduced from 250 kW/m2 per year to at least 100 kW / m2 / year
To reduce demand by 60% of current e-usage a combination of activities are required
21
Energy saving in Energy saving in residential housesresidential houses Further savings can only be achieved if
alternative energy systems are used for;– Heating or cooling a facility (15%)– Heating up sanitary water (15%)– Cooking (10%)
For the hydraulic systems solar plants are recommended whilst for cooking, gas is the only real feasible alternative
22
Potential Saving per Potential Saving per householdhouseholdBy an annual electrical consumption of 25 mWh, or 2,083 kWh* per month, installing alternative heating systems for; hot water, can save 6,5 mWh per annum central heating, save 6,0 mWh per annum cooking with gas instead of electricity the total electrical power thereby saved per
annum will amount to ~15 mWh, saving 750 €** from theannual electricity bill
**Electrical cost per kWh = 0,05 €
