Creative Energy Capture

 

Ways to Charge Our Thermal BatterY

With our Thermal Tank at the heart of your domestic hot water solution, we can “charge the thermal battery” with energy from various sources.

To drive cost efficiencies, we encourage our clients to consider creative energy capture solutions: [1] solar energy capture uses the abundantly available energy of the sun, [2] ambient energy solutions via heat pumps capture the heat available in the environment, even at colder temperatures, and [3] waste energy (re)capture ensures that energy you already paid for is put to use again before being discharged.

We will optimize the combination of these energy sources for our client’s individual needs and can pair them with existing system components.

Ambient Energy Capture - Heat Pump

Heat pumps can reliably extract energy from the environment. They require a certain amount of electrical energy to operate, but turn each unit of energy input into multiple units of thermal energy output.  That relationship is called the COP (Coefficient of Power).

Solar Energy Capture - PowerPanel PVT

PowerPanel’s Made in USA dual decarbonization solution can do more than traditional PV-only solutions. Our patented PVT modules deliver electricity, just like PV. But for every unit of electrical energy, we are adding four units of thermal energy.

Recapture Waste Energy

An air conditioning unit draws heat out of a space/building and “discharges” that heat into the environment. By adding a “desuperheater” into the refrigerant cycle, we can reclaim a substantial portion of that “already paid for” energy and make it available via our Thermal Tank as an energy source for hot water.
