Thermal peak load shaving through users request variations

open access: yesInternational Journal of Thermodynamics, 2016
Peak shaving is a relatively new approach aimed at increasing the primary energy efficiency in District Heating Systems. This is mainly performed using thermal storage units that can be charged when the thermal request is small, usually at night, and discharged to cover peak requests.
