    Row of thermal solar connectors on a flat roof in the building area Freiburg-Gutleutmatten.

    During this project, the decentralized integration of solar thermal energy plants into a heat supply concept based on a cogeneration unit is examined. The operation of the cogeneration unit is optimized for the best possible interaction with the power grid and the local heating network for a minimization of distribution loss. The central objective of the project is to implement and review the concept and operations management in the demonstration project Freiburg-Gutleutmatten and subsequently derive generally applicable regulations for the long-term utilization of solar thermal energy in comparable residential areas, especially in light of massively changing energy supply structures. | Duration: 06/2013 - 04/2018
