Optimizing production efficiencies of hot water units using building energy simulations - Trade-off between Legionella pneumophila contamination risk and energy efficiency [PDF]
The energy needed for domestic hot water represents an important share in the total energy use of well-insulated and airtight buildings. One of the main reasons for this high energy demand is that hot water is produced at temperatures above 60°C to ...

PV domestic hot water system [PDF]
PV production and the consumptions of the building on which the PV is installed are not always in phase. In such a context, a coupling between PV production and local thermal systems can be an interesting solution to convert produced electricity into heat, thus storing it locally more easily than in electrochemical devices.
