Systematic Integration of Energy-Optimal Buildings With District Networks

François Maréchal, Luc Girardin, Ivan Daniel Kantor, Paul Michael Stadler, Raluca-Ancuta Suciu

The residential sector accounts for a large share of worldwide energy consumption, yet is difficult to characterise, since consumption profiles depend on several factors from geographical location to individual building occupant behaviour. Given this diffi ...

Method for the systematic integration of multi-energy networks and low carbon resources in cities

François Maréchal, Luc Girardin, Paul Michael Stadler, Raluca-Ancuta Suciu

The design and operation of building energy systems (BES) has become a subject of great interest, given the latest energy policies adapted around the world, namely increasing the energy efficiency and the share of renewable energy sources (RES) while reduc ...

Energy integration of CO2 networks and Power to Gas for emerging energy autonomous cities in Europe

François Maréchal, Luc Girardin, Raluca-Ancuta Suciu

The concept of urban CO2 networks has been developed to deploy heat pump based district heating and cooling systems in dense urban areas. The use of the CO2 phase change reduces the cost of the heat distribution while allowing to recover waste heat that is ...

2018

Multi-period multi-time optimisation of CO2 based district energy systems

François Maréchal, Luc Girardin, Paul Michael Stadler, Raluca-Ancuta Suciu

Energy system design should take into account the hourly, daily and seasonal variations of both the energy demand and the considered utilities, and therefore requires a multi-time-resolution problem formulation. Multi-period / multi-time optimization is ne ...

Solar thermal and geothermal integration with low temperature CO 2 DENs

François Maréchal, Luc Girardin, Raluca-Ancuta Suciu

Taking into account the high efficiency of solar thermal collectors and the fact that heating demands represent around 80% of the total energy needs in residential buildings, it is of interest to integrate solar thermal systems to supply HVAC services. How ...

Integration of CO2 networks and Power to Gas for emerging energy autonomous cities in Europe

François Maréchal, Luc Girardin, Raluca-Ancuta Suciu

CO2 is used more and more as a refrigerant in the commercial and food retail industries and a majority of experts believe that its share in the field of residential heating, commercial refrigeration and mobile air conditioning across Europe will be higher ...
