Thermodynamic Solar Energy


Today at the Waterford Self build show, I cam across LVP Renewables Thermodynamic Solar Energy they are based in Dublin.

They say it’s the next generation of Solar Panels that work Day & Night, Hail , Rain, Wind or Shine.

They can do Hot water and entire Cental Heating systems

The LVP Renewables / ENERGIE water heating system incorporates a market leading thermodynamic technology in which heat is drawn from the environment by the panel, and is transferred to the water via a compressor, using the Carnot cycle. The Thermodynamic Solar Panels are filled with Klea gas (no CFC’s) and sourcing heat in a number of ways:
Solar - direct and reflected solar light
Air convection - wind passing over the panel
Rainwater - contact of rainwater with the panel
and the water temperature in the storage tank is raised in a highly efficient and cost effective manner, even when it's raining and even during the night.
With the only electrical power consumption being the small compressor motor (equivalent to that of a domestic fridge), the system can save up to 80% of your water heating costs.

there is also www.solarduo.eu or www.becovillage.com who has hybrid solar modules and thermodynamic solar water heater/ boiler. PV, Thermal and heatpump combined in one system. Efficiency of 90 to 100% for electricity and hot water, heating and HVAC.

Woah! I'm really loving the template/theme of this site.
It's simple, yet effective. A lot of times it's very difficult to get that "perfect balance"
between usability and visual appeal. I must say
that you've done a excellent job with this. Also, the blog loads extremely fast for me on Internet
explorer. Excellent Blog!

Look at my web site: solar water heater
