Therefore, our design does utilize a method for storing energy for cooling as needed. The combined air conditioning and thermal storage system is intended as a technology to increase the effectiveness of solar photovoltaic energy use.
Irrespective of the size of the storage system, the rapid thermal response and fast conversion of thermal energy as latent heat by the dynamic charging system make it promising for large-scale storage of renewable thermal energy.
The decline in costs for solar power and storage systems offers opportunity for solar-plus-storage systems to serve as a cost-competitive source for the future energy system in China. The transportation, building, and industry sectors account, respectively, for 15.3, 18.3, and 66.3% of final energy consumption in China (5).
All the other choices could also help enhance the matching of demand with solar supply, potentially reducing the storage capacity needed in the solar-plus-storage system. In this case, the cost advantage of solar PV could be further amplified.
While solar cooling can be provided without any storage capacity, our design is intended to make use of the high levels of sunlight during the peak irradiation time during the day in order to provide cooling during the subsequent period of peak cooling demand. Therefore, our design does utilize a method for storing energy for cooling as needed.
This system has a relatively low upfront cost of $4728 due to the smaller compressor and a high savings as a result of replacing grid power with the stored thermal energy during peak rate hours. For a period of 10 years, the expected savings compared to a conventional system is $6700.
