Abstract
The adoption of micro-scale renewable energy systems in the residential sector has started to be increasingly diffused in recent years. Among the possible systems, ground heat exchangers coupled with reversible heat pumps are an interesting solution for providing space heating and cooling to households. In this context, a possible hybridization of this technology with other renewable sources may lead to significant benefits in terms of energy performance and reduction of the dependency on conventional energy sources. However, the investigation of hybrid systems is not frequently addressed in the literature. The present paper presents a technical, energy, and economic analysis of a hybrid ground-solar-wind system, proving space heating/cooling, domestic hot water, and electrical energy for a household. The system includes vertical ground heat exchangers, a water–water reversible heat pump, photovoltaic/thermal collectors, and a wind turbine. The system with the building is modeled and dynamically simulated in the Transient System Simulation (TRNSYS) software. Daily dynamic operation of the system and the monthly and yearly results are analyzed. In addition, a parametric analysis is performed varying the solar field area and wind turbine power. The yearly results point out that the hybrid system, compared to a conventional system with natural gas boiler and electrical chiller, allows one to reduce the consumption of primary energy of 66.6%, and the production of electrical energy matches 68.6% of the user demand on a yearly basis. On the other hand, the economic results show that that system is not competitive with the conventional solution, because the simple pay back period is 21.6 years, due to the cost of the system components.
