“…Delgado et al (2017) conclude that GSHPs offer the best combinations of cost-optimality, operational equivalent CO2 emissions, and exergy among the main heat supply systems investigated, and that they are generally best complemented with PV, which is similar to the findings of this study. Furthermore, Delgado et al (2018) conclude that heat pumps represent the optimal main heat supply component in the Netherlands and Finland, and PV systems are the most attractive supplementary onsite generation components. Delgado et al (2018) give valuable insights into the potential of prosumers in central and northern Europe, yet acknowledge that significant differences might arise in other geographical locations, indicating the need for separate case study assessments.…”

“…In this regard, there are studies that have analysed the heating aspect of residential households, such as Brange et al (2016) wherein, heat prosumers in Sweden were analysed and showed their potential to contribute significant amounts of heat to district heating grids. Furthermore, Delgado et al (2018) conducts multi-objective optimisations for operational CO2 emissions and lifecycle costs (LCC) of heat and electricity prosumers in the Netherlands and Finland. The study finds that as energy systems continue to develop, heat export to district grids has potential to become a common practice (Delgado et al, 2018).…”

Cost optimal self-consumption of PV prosumers with stationary batteries, heat pumps, thermal energy storage and electric vehicles across the world up to 2050

Globally, PV prosumers account for a significant share of the total installed solar PV capacity, which is a growing trend with ever-increasing retail electricity prices. Further propelled by performance improvements of solar PV and innovations that allow for greater consumer choice, with additional benefits such as cost reductions and availability of incentives. PV prosumers may be one of the most important enablers of the energy transition. PV prosumers are set to gain the most by maximising self-consumption, while avoiding large amounts of excess electricity being fed into the grid. Additionally, electricity and heat storage technologies, heat pumps and battery electric vehicles are complementary to achieve the highest possible self-consumption shares for residential PV prosumer systems, which can reach grid-parity within this decade in most regions of the world. This research finds the cost optimal mix of the various complementary technologies such as batteries, electric vehicles, heat pumps and thermal heat storage for PV prosumers across the world by exploring 4 different scenarios. Furthermore, the research presents the threshold for economical maximum battery capacity per installed PV capacity, along with self-consumption ratios, demand cover ratios and heat cover ratios for 145 different regions across the world. This is a first of its kind study to conduct a global analysis of PV prosumers with a range of options to meet their complete energy demand from a future perspective, up to 2050. Maximising self-consumption from solar PV generation to meet all energy needs will be the most economical option in the future, for households across most regions of the world.

“…Reviewing the HCE literature, this study analyzed the basic progress in research on HCEs. The main HCE research hotspots have shifted from CO 2 emissions from direct household energy usage and indirect household consumption to one category, such as gas [35], electricity [36], heating [37], and residential housing [38,39]. In general, the research subjects have shifted from the whole to the individual.…”

The household sector, which plays a critical role in emission reduction, is a main source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Although numerous academic journals have published papers on household CO2 emissions (HCEs), great challenges remain in research on assessments, determinants, and further research prospects. This work reviews and projects HCEs using a bibliometric analysis and a systematic review based on the data from the Web of Science (WOS) platform from 1991 to 2020. Over the last 30 years, there has been a rapid and active trend of research on HCEs. We find that (1) the scale of the bibliometric analysis shows that research on HCEs is interdisciplinary and must consider overall cognition of the environment, the economy, society, and technology. It also needs to strengthen cooperation between different countries/territories to emphasize the quality and influence of papers on HCEs. (2) A review of previous literature shows that research on HCEs mainly focuses on the research object, mainstream assessments, and influencing factors. The following six main aspects impact HCEs: demographic, income, social, technological, policy, and natural factors. (3) The research discussion suggests that more micro-level research needs to be conducted, such as research on the city level and the individual level, which is important for sustainable development and low consumption. A comparative analysis of the differences in HCEs is a future research direction. Additionally, localized carbon emission reduction measures need to be implemented.
