REVOLUTIONARY RENEWABLE ENERGY TECHNOLOGIES IN A TOTAL INTEGRATED ENERGY SYSTEM:

Below is a schematic of the integrated total energy solution employed at the GREENhouse ... it includes a number of new technologies many of which are actually not available on the open market as yet i.e. the central "smart box" controlling the range of renewable energy sources and the 1,000 L multi-source and multi-output tank ( still under development ). The condensing Biomass Boiler is at final trials stage and will soon be available on the open market and although the flat plate heat exchanger is available in the UK it has not been widely used in this form of direct heating system.

THIS SYSTEM is pioneering in that it seeks to provide a "smart" sustainable heating and hot water system integrating a number of heat sources and output temperatures ( for the hot water and the under-floor heating system ). Thanks go to Grant UK / New World Solar / Pure Green Energy / Gledhills / Variotherm for their help and advice in putting this system together ... I will be updating this page on a regular basis with actual data and feedback on how the system is performing together with advice for others who are going to be trying it for themselves.
