Description
Summary:The present study aims to satisfy the energy demands of a set of Norwegian residential structures with the least carbon dioxide and most renewable energy. Real-time data on building domestic hot water (DHW), heating, and electricity usage is used to plan and expand the renewable energy supply side. PVT panels provide DHW and electricity in the hybrid solar and biomass energy system. Heat is produced by the digester and heat pump. Also used is a twofold effect absorption refrigeration system for cooling. Rule-based regulation manages heat streams and redirects flows on the supply side. We provide the plant's size and execute the dynamic energy simulation. Electricity and biomass expenses determine building heating. The system is then tuned for operational conditions and compared to the design point. PVT may generate over 80% of annual DHW. Summertime radiation is more intense and can be turned into cooling energy, therefore 64.8% of cooling output comes from it. Digester/CC heats 66.55% of the structure, suggesting designers use biomass in winter due to increased energy costs. A parametric analysis shows that increasing PVT duration and tank size affects efficiency and emissions differently. Cost, efficiency, and emission index at TOPSIS are 9.73 $/hr, 36.8%, and 7.75 kg/MWh, according to optimization findings.
