Green Hybrid Energy for Office Building

Abstract

This contribution presents a comparative study of operating a green energy hybrid system to sustain the power production mix of an office building. For this purpose, two scenarios of a hydrogen storage system (S1) and battery energy storage (S2) to sustain solar and wind energy inlets were compared from a technical, environmental and financial perspectives. S1 - hydrogen technology system was found to be more performing than S2 - battery technology in terms of energy efficiency, as well as CO2 emissions and initial costs.

Pairing solar power to sustainable energy storage solutions within a residential building: A case study

“…The authors of the studies have performed detailed analyses concerning the use of alternative energies for power supply of stationary applications, such as: residential buildings in dense urban areas, 35 low energy residential buildings, 36 passive houses, 37 charging stations for electrical cars, 38,39 office buildings. 40 The relevant articles published lately in the international literature have been summarized below.…”

“…To address different aspects regarding the design, optimization, sizing and practical applications of systems based on clean alternative energies for power supply of various consumer types, including the building sector, there are many works in the literature. The authors of the studies have performed detailed analyses concerning the use of alternative energies for power supply of stationary applications, such as: residential buildings in dense urban areas, 35 low energy residential buildings, 36 passive houses, 37 charging stations for electrical cars, 38,39 office buildings 40 . The relevant articles published lately in the international literature have been summarized below.…”
