Power-to-heat (P2H) shows how we can use renewables for heating. Power-to-heat technologies have been on the market for quite some time now, with heat pumps being the most important. However, they are only efficient at lower temperatures. Whenever very high temperatures are needed – for example, in the industry – electrode boilers are used.
So what do you think? Which technologies do you think will substitute the current fossil-fuel-based heaters in the future European energy system?
Dear Md. Nasimul Islam Maruf ,
I think the major source will be direct solar heaters. Especially in the European countries in the south and east of Europe where they are rich with solar radiation.
For very controlled heating for industry one has to use the photovoltaic generators.
Best wishes
I beleive the combination of solar photovoltaic and fuel cell is fit for combined heat and power.
