RENEWABLE-ENERGY-READY DESIGN

  • With recent developments in renewable energy (RE)
  • particularly tumbling Photovoltaic (PV) solar panel costs
  • electric vehicles (EV) and battery storage
    • we need to think a bit harder about what we choose and how we use RE
    • Future proofing your energy bills
    • Understanding your demands
    • Reduce demand
    • Heating: Insulation, Airtightness, Thermal breaks
    • Hot water: Shower heat recovery,
    • Internet of Things
      • Monitors cost of electricity and only consumes when cheap, free or be paid
      • Domestic Hot Water
        • Mixergy
      • Domestic heating
        • “Boiler”
      • Thermal storage ‘heat battery’
        • Sunamp
      • Increase efficiency: Monitor, metering and controls
      • Mains power price fluctuations exploitation to get cheap off peak
        • For heat and hot water
        • Reduce Carbon in supply
        • Warning if PV supply is not working
        • Use maximum RE before topping up from mains
        • not switching to mains
      • Use RE renewable energy yourself
        • avoid using Gas Oil LPG Coal
        • Low voltage circuits to low voltage kit
      • Get occupants engaged in behaviour change

Solar orientation and solar access

  • Of house, windows, roofs, panels
  • Feeding power from roof to mains entry point

Matching energy demand to RE supply

  • Orientating panels not just to south and 30 degrees above horizontal
  • Introducing batteries to smooth out differences
  • Optimising battery installation
  • Direct use from PV without transformers wasting energy
  • DC low voltage circuit for DC Low voltage kit

BIPV v Alternative

  • Arrangement
  • Building Integrated PV
  • Verses
    • above slope ventilated PV
    • PVT with thermal heat use
    • Risks of
    • Under performing PV
    • overheating of attic, upper floor or whole house
  • Battery storage
  • EV on drive
    • optimise PV to be charged by Solar PV only not from mains
  • Battery storage in garage (in a separate fire compartment)
  • UPS Uninterrupted power supply for fridge/freezer during brown out

24 Sustainable Development Goals

  • The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), also known as the Global Goals, were adopted by the United Nations in 2015 as a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure that by 2030 all people enjoy peace and prosperity.
  • The 17 SDGs are integrated—they recognize that action in one area will affect outcomes in others, and that development must balance social, economic and environmental sustainability.
  • Countries have committed to prioritize progress for those who’re furthest behind. The SDGs are designed to end poverty, hunger, AIDS, and discrimination against women and girls.
  • The creativity, knowhow, technology and financial resources from all of society is necessary to achieve the SDGs in every context.

SDG 1 No Poverty

SDG 2 Zero Hunger

SDG 3 Good Health And Well-Being

  • See SDG 15

SDG 4 Quality Education

SDG 5 Gender Equality

SDG 6 Clean Water And Sanitation
