General scheme of a solar cooling system��

07.10.2019 | Slide 9

Target buildings: §  Two building types/sizes with a potentially constant cooling load during

the day have been chosen:

a) Medium: Average commercial building of 500 to 1,000 m2 air- conditioned area (depending on the location in Arab region). Cooling capacity approx. 100 kWc b) Large: Group of buildings (using a distributed cooling network) or a large building, air-conditioned area of 5,000 to 10,000 m2. Cooling capacity approx. 1 MWc.

System configuration: §  Double-effect absorption chiller with Parabolic trough/Fresnel collector,

a small hot water tank and hybrid cooling tower §  PV Cooling with scroll vapour compression chiller, battery storage and

wet cooling tower §  Reference with scroll vapour compression chiller and wet cooling tower

Favourable countries for a 100 kWc solar cooling system: Egypt, Jordan, Morocco, Palestine, Tunisia, Yemen §  There, the net present cost over 20 years of lifetime is lower for both

solar cooling technologies compared to the reference case.

§  In all countries above, the PV cooling solution is more competitive than the solar thermal one.

SAC Application (Hotel, Spain, 125 kWc)

Favourable countries for a 1 MWc solar cooling system: UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia §  In the UAE, both solar thermal and solar PV cooling are currently

economically viable with lower net present cost than the reference case over 20 years.

§  In Kuwait, Qatar and Saudi Arabia, solar thermal and solar PV cooling solutions are very close to each other in terms of net present cost. Both solar cooling technologies, however, are only economically viable compared to the reference system if a subsidy of at least 50% is applied on the investment cost.

§  MAP (market incentive program): since January 2018 BAFA offers 150 and 200 EUR/m2 for collector areas between 20 m2 and 100 m2 for solar thermal cooling in new buildings and building stock, respectively.

§  MAP: alternatively a subsidy based on annual solar energy yields is offered for solar cooling with collector areas between 20 to 100 m2 (0.45 EUR x annual collector yield x number of collectors).

§  BAFA has opened in January 2019 the program for promotion of efficient cooling systems in industry for sorption technology from 5 kWc to 600 kWc cooling capacity (max. 50% of net investment). Additionally heat rejection units are funded as well as heat/cold storages and a special bonus for RES. Funding calculator https://www.klimaschutz.de/förderrechner (only in German)

§  Solar electric source e.g. photovoltaic (PV) driven AC

New SHC TCP Task / MI IC7

§  Build on previous Tasks 25, 38, 48 and 53 §  Vision: Solar Cooling to be recognized as affordable, safe and

reliable cooling systems for the SUNBELT REGIONS worldwide §  Focus: Target size segment on cooling and air conditioning

between 10 kWr and 1,000 kWr (PV and ST Cooling). The proposed Task aims to complement the IC7 project titled ‘Comfort and Climate Box’, managed by the Heat Pump Centre primarily in the small capacity segment.

07.10.2019 | Slide 31

Global objectives of new SHC TCP Task / MI IC7

§  Knowhow capitalised in OECD countries (Europe, US, Australia, etc.) on SOLAR COOLING TECHNOLOGY (both thermal and PV)

§  Very few efforts have made to adapt and transfer this knowhow to Sunbelt countries such as Africa, MENA, Asian countries

§  New SHC Task is aimed to focus on innovations for affordable, safe and reliable cooling systems for the SUNBELT REGIONS worldwide (sunny and hot climates, between the 20th and 40th degrees of latitude in the northern and southern hemisphere)

§  The innovation driver and the keyword is ADAPTATION of existing concepts to the Sunbelt regions

07.10.2019 | Slide 32

First Task Definition Meeting of new SHC TCP Task

§  Solar Cooling for the Sunbelt Regions

§  Santiago, Chile on November 7th, 2-6 pm following SHC 2019 / SWC 2019 / SAC 2019 conference (https://www.swc2019.org)
