The H2 Fusión of Spain says that the PR5 system of the solar heat is used PV energy to produce hot water for self-consumption in industrial buildings, which reaches the temperature of up to 92 C.
H2 Fusión, a unit of the Spanish semiconductor manufacturer Meins, has developed solar heat PR5, a thermal system that immediately produces hot water for self-consumption with only PV energy.
“The PR5 system transforms photovoltaic energy into thermal kilowatts,” the company said, and noted that the product is supplied in 80 kW and 100 kW models and water up to 92 ° C. up to 60 C. ”
The thermal system weighs 360 kg and measures 1,800 mm x 700 mm x 700 mm. It works with a maximum pressure of 6 bars and within a temperature range from -10 ° C to 50 C. The company said that potential applications include the meat industry, the health sector, hotels, cattle and agriculture.
“However, its use is not only limited to the professional field, but the PR5 is a device that is designed for each building needed to meet the specific standards of technical building codes,” said H2 Fusión.
The company told PV -Magazine That it now completes the installation of the Limcasa Group system, a Spanish Facility Service Company.
“The installation has a gas boiler of 150 kW and works at 65 ° C and we have installed a PR5 in series with the boiler to heat and prevent the water.
The company claimed that the thermal energy corresponds to the PV output. For example, a 100 kW of solar system in Salamanca, which produces 160 MWh per year, would generate the same amount of thermal energy. A system of 100 kW requires 100 kW to 120 kW installed PV capacity.
The company said that “the PR5 system transforms the variable costs of energy into fixed energy costs during the 25-year useful life of the system.” It also noted that “the energy it uses is free because it is produced with natural resources, so the only fixed costs are the initial investment to install the system.”
