MERITS aims to develop a compact thermal energy storage system that utilizes high-density materials to provide heating, cooling, and domestic hot water using renewable energy sources. The system is designed to meet seasonal energy demands efficiently and can be tailored to individual homes.
As Europe moves towards low and zero-carbon housing, challenges arise in the management of building integrated renewable energy technologies.
Electricity generating RES have the benefit of electrical connection and financial mechanisms allowing feed-in to the network.
Thermal technologies do not have such general interconnectivity and therefore rely on sizing typically meeting 90% of summer demands in moderate climates.
This approach provides little benefit in winter.
Therefore an obvious approa…
