Summer / winter balancing of solar power — seasonal storage
Different approaches to summer/winter balancing compared. Seven different locations, from Oslo to Cairo, are examined for seasonal balancing.
Using the example of a ClimateProtectionSuperiorityHouse “GEMIN next Generation” 66 m² living space, 30 kW photovoltaics (24 kW on the house, 6 kW on garage or carport), 70 kWh batteries and 1000 kWh low-temperature thermal storage, the demand for summer/winter balancing at 7 locations is investigated:
| 00:00 | Start
| | 00:56 | Oslo - 64 - 3976 kWh monthly yield
| | 01:23 | Berlin - 324 - 3924 kWh monthly yield
| | 01:33 | Vienna - 565 - 4243 kWh monthly yield
| | 01:40 | Rome - 1237 - 5333 kWh monthly yield
| | 01:47 | Athens - 1447 - 5741 kWh monthly yield
| | 01:53 | Tel Aviv - 2052 - 5483 kWh monthly yield
| | 02:03 | Cairo - 2556 - 5649 kWh monthly yield
| | 02:10 | Monthly Yield Table
| | 02:17 | In June Oslo:Cairo 1:1.4
| | 02:28 | In December Oslo:Cairo 1:40
| | 02:40 | Best:worst month 62:1 in Oslo, 2.2:1 in Cairo
| | 03:10 | Demand household, hot water, electric cars, space heating and space cooling
| | 04:24 | Distribution of world population by latitude
| | 04:54 | Proposal 1: double photovoltaics
| | 05:40 | Proposal 2: much more batteries
| | 06:50 | Proposal 3: hydrogen fuel cell
| | 07:35 | The difference between ideal gas and real hydrogen at high pressure
| | 08:41 | How much electricity can be stored in the 12 hydrogen cylinders?
| | 11:01 | Efficient battery vs cheap hydrogen
| | 11:43 | Proposal 4: external service provider
| | 12:43 | Bottle hydrogen vs underground gas storage
| | 13:32 | Fuel cell vs combined cycle power plant
| | 14:16 | Efficiency table in summer/winter balance
| | 14:41 | Possible techniques and their efficiency
| | 15:41 | Day/night balancing must come before, see Agora energy transition graphic

| The heat pumps have arrived
|
| 
|
|
|
On December 16, 2020 paid, on January 27 the ship arrived in the Slovenian port of Koper. On February 19, the 3 heat pumps could be picked up at a forwarding agency near Salzburg.
|
| Rethinking cities
|
| 
|
|
|
The Green parliamentary group in the German Bundestag is hosting the online conference “Rethinking Cities” on March 19, 2021. We are participating in the virtual exhibition.
|
| The LiFePo4 batteries have arrived
|
| 
|
|
|
Ordered in mid-December, arrived on March 19. Low costs for electricity storage are a decisive factor for a real energy transition.
|
| Rethinking the energy transition: The price lie
|
| 
|
|
|
The demand for “more money for climate protection” is based on the price lie. But we need more motivation, credit and opportunity for a real effective energy transition.
|
| Energy change — Food change — Social change
|
| 
|
|
|
Everyone is only talking about the energy transition for climate protection, but we also need a change in food production and in the social sphere. A solution for all 3 changes.
|
| Ventilation system with heat and moisture recovery
|
| 
|
|
|
On May 13, the last of the ordered units is ready for pickup at a forwarding company. The trip was nearly for nothing, because the device only barely fit through the tailgate.
|
| DIY test of thermal insulation of an alternative building material
|
| 
|
|
|
Construction wood prices are rising dramatically spring 2021 and there are supply problems. But wood prices for other applications, such as this material, are falling slightly.
|
| Would Germany be possible with 100% solar electricity?
|
| 
|
|
|
The expansion of wind energy is faltering. Is wind energy really indispensable for the energy transition or would it even work with exclusively 100% solar power?
|
| Ventilation systems with heat and moisture recovery
|
| 
|
|
|
Extremely economical and quiet, yet large power reserves to have the best indoor air quality even at a large party. Is of course part of the basic equipment.
|
| More efficiency in heating, cooling and hot water by 3 new patents
|
| 
|
|
|
How can you achieve a higher COP with an air-source heat pump than with a ground-source heat pump, and how can you drastically reduce the amount of electricity needed to heat water?
|
| Disruption at houses
|
| 
|
|
|
The market for homes is in as horrifying a state as the electric car market was in 2003: in the year Tesla was founded, the Peugeot 106 was a top electric car.
|
| A visual misunderstanding,
|
| 
|
|
|
or how a house shrank to 2/3 of its size. Because of this visual misunderstanding, the video “Disruption in Houses” was published again with improved graphics.
