If you already have a solar heating system, we are happy to integrate a heat pump into your existing energy infrastructure in an intelligent way to increase the efficiency and add flexibility to your energy system.
Heat pumps are ideal in combination with solar heating plants. The integration of solar thermal and heat pumps creates synergies between renewable energy sources, enhancing both the flexibility and efficiency of the heat supply.
Synergy between air and solar
The heat pump helps optimize the return temperature in the solar plant during months with the least amount of sunshine and enables the solar collectors to harvest more energy, thereby increasing overall efficiency. Likewise, the energy from the solar heating system helps improve the heat pump's performance during those periods, where it has the greatest value for the overall efficiency.
This integration boosts the efficiency of the solar heating plant while also improving the COP (Coefficient Of Performance). Calculations show that the yield from an existing solar heating plant can be increased by between 8% and 28% through intelligent integration of solar and heat pump systems.
