{"title": ["", "Combined Heat and Photo Voltaics (CHPV)"], "description": ["", "\nThe Combined Heat and Photo-voltaic (CHPV) based local energy system solution was formulated on the simple, but\neffective observation that CHP systems develop low carbon and energy efficient electrical power in the colder months of\nthe year in the UK and Photo-voltaic (PV) power generation provides most of its low carbon power generation when there is\nno demand for heat in commercial buildings. By combining these two primary energy supplies, it is potentially feasible to\ncreate a LES which is autonomous to the national electricity grid by appropriate sizing of the CHP and PV systems. That\nsaid the supply and demand is highly transient and the use of energy storage and advanced control systems and other\ndemand side measures such as Smart DC systems for lighting and ICT networks will enable accurate supply and demand\nmatching for both heat and power. This potential LES solution is highly attractive to industry partners in the CHPV project\nsuch as Peel Utilities, BRE and ARUP. The system potentially offers a high return-on-infrastructure investment (ROI),\nhowever it is extremely complex to design to ensure that this ROI can be reliably achieved in practice. In order to assist in\nthe design and implementation of CHPV based LES systems the following research needs to be carried out:\nTask 1: Dr J. Counsell with the research assistant will develop ESL based models for the energy supply and demand\nsystems such as CHP and PV and the already developed through BRE Trust R&D funded projects IDEAS dynamic\nmodelling of buildings and there energy using systems. The researcher will be able to draw on existing models within the\nEEE department for PV and other micro-generation systems at Liverpool to rapidly develop comprehensive nonlinear dynamic models for both energy supply and energy demand in the buildings served by the CHPV based LES. (refer\nreferences in Appendix A of the main TSB proposal for references of past modelling work)\nTask 2: Led by Dr Lin Jiang the researcher will use the ESL models resulting from task 1 to develop nonlinear optimal\ncontrol solutions to guarantee supply and demand matching with the constraints of satisfying thermal comfort requirements\nin the buildings and the minimising the power drawn for the national power grid. The research will need new nonlinear\ninverse dynamic control algorithms developed by Dr Counsell (refer Appendix A for references) and nonlinear optimal\ncontrol strategies for demand side management systems developed by Dr Lin Jiang (refer Appendix A for references).\nThese control algorithms will also be modelled and used in simulation studies to prove the effective regulation of the\nautomated CHPV systems.\nTask 3: Led By Dr Lin Jiang, the researcher will create the ESL models and tuned control algorithms for each of the three\ncase studies in this project.\nTask 4: Dr Counsell will lead the application of the resulting case study models in partnership with Peel, BRE and ARUP to\ntest a number of demand side measures including Smart DC systems for LED lighting and ICT networks and devices. The\ntests will establish the energy, carbon and economic benefits that Smart DC systems will bring to the CHPV based LES\nsolution and the models for Smart DC systems will be validated using the EEE department's new Smart DC PoE Network\nlaboratory now under construction.\nThe lead academics and the researcher will engage with BRE and the BRE Trust to hold industry/academic research\nworkshops and create high quality journal and BRE Trust publications as well as hold workshops to disseminate the\neffectiveness of the CHPV concept. The resulting project outputs such as design tools from the university will also be\ndisseminated to the wider LES community. It will also investigate the potential for the design tools to be used as part of\npotentially new regulatory frameworks which are being developed outside this project for local energy systems.\n\n"], "extra_text": ["", "\n\nPotential Impact:\nThe impact of this project cannot be underestimated. CHP based LES is emerging around the country, many universities\nare deploying this energy supply solution in inner cities, such as Liverpool, De Montford, Birmingham and others. Liverpool\nis by far the most mature having recently grown to such a size that it is now 100% self sufficient in electricity and heat\ngeneration for the university's campus as a whole. It has recently tripled its CHP capacity and is a UK exemplar system of\na LES. Peel Utilities at the same time have invested heavily in developing by coincidence but serendipitous the exact\nsame CHP type infrastructure for Media City in Salford and are continuing to invest to expand and make more efficient\nthese systems. The critical mass of the Media city and University infrastructures valued at over £50 Million being made\navailable to be utilised as a case study in this project creates an almost unparalleled potential impact on today's energy\nsupply business, societal acceptance of LES and the sustainability of urban building clusters. If these systems are to\ncontinue to succeed and expand they will need increased levels of automation, advanced control strategies and very\ndetailed and accurate means to predict the energy, carbon and ROI impact of design and investment decisions made. At\npresent both the University's Facilities Management and Peel do not have that level of knowledge and sophisticated design\ntools to enable these systems to grow and be profitable without significant risk. The project will create a pathway for both\nthe university and Peel to take advantage of the University of Liverpool's EPSRC Doctorate Training Centre for RISK\nmanagement alongside this core project. The presence of ARUP in the project creates a further pathway to disseminate\nthe significant benefits of CHPV based LES when applied to new and refurbished commercial builds or complexes,\nincluding public buildings such as education and local authorities.\nAs the ESL modelling framework is object oriented, the software tools can be disseminated across a number of research\nprojects inside Liverpool and outside such as Newcastle, BRE, Strathclyde, Bath etc. These models present an\nopportunity for other research activities with an energy systems core competence to explore further collaborative research\nwith Liverpool and other project partners on CHPV based LES and other LES types.\nThe TSB through KTN's have established a critical mass with the IET to create new codes of practice for Smart DC systems for which Dr Counsell is a member of the working groups. He was also the Chairman of the TSB's Smart DC\nSpecial Interest Group which has now successfully transferred the Smart DC activities over to the IET. Working with IET,\nTSB's KTN and the global activities such as the Emerge Alliance on Smart DC standards and frameworks, Dr Counsell can\nprovide a high impact pathway for the CHPV concept to be considered as an exemplar application of Smart DC buildings in\nthe future. These forums will facilitate other industry stakeholders to be actively involved in the research such as Philips\nR&D in the Netherlands with their own new initiatives to promote Smart DC for commercial building LED lighting.\nThe final pathway for impact via publication is also strengthened by the presence of BRE/BRE Trust in this project who can\nprovide industry/academic style workshops to disseminate both knowledge and tools for CHPV based LES to industry and\nacademic stakeholders and other interested parties and the energy industry (both suppliers and users) at large.\n\n\n"], "status": ["", "Closed"]}
