Subtask A

• Coordinated national reviews of energy storage use in energy efficient buildings

• To share the information among the members and to

“inform” the members about all the considered systems

• To give the actual picture of ES use in each country, design concepts used and practical results,

• To highlight limitations and needs for new research activities.

Task has been completed

Feedback

• Improve the knowledge of the storage material has been identified as the most important information to improve the technology.

• Optimization is necessary for the control, sizing, system integration and modification,

• fundamental and applied research is needed to remove many hurdles in the large scale applications of these technologies.

Subtask B

• Collaborative evaluation of energy storage usage and proposed efficient systems based on Subtask

A and other Annex results .

– Evaluation and inclusion of related finding from other

IEA activities

– Identification of obstacles to effective storage techniques.

The final report was presented yesterday

Workshop: to discuss the findings of A&B

Subtask C

• Development of Sustainable Energy Storage

Designs for a variety of Ultra-low energy building thermal and phase change materials options .

– Conceptual design of ultra-low energy building types with energy storage,

– Case studies

A number of case studies have been performed.

Work under way

• Development of improved tools for modeling, simulation and optimization for integration in comprehensive building simulation programs,

– Develop a numerical model for PCM integrated walls (to be integrated with TRNSYS) and validated with field data from task D,

– Perform detailed simulation to show the benefits of TES application in ultra low energy building.

Only one case study should be proposed for all participants.

Subtask D

• Apply, monitor and evaluate demonstrations of these Designs in a number of countries and climates

– To monitor experimental/prototype systems with

Energy Storage for model validation

– To monitor real buildings (already built or under construction) with Energy Storage Systems ,

• Data for model validation,

• Comparison of efficiency and performance of technologies

A comprehensive data base has been developed.

On Going Experiments

• PCM passive cooling with conventional brick, alveolar brick and concrete walls

• PCM wallboards

• Ventilated facade with PCM

• Ventilated façade with concrete

• Heat pump with PCM tanks

• Water+PCM tanks for domestic hot water

• PCM packed bed for cold storage

Subtask E

• Identify technologies and applications needed in the long-term to achieve ultra low energy building objectives and develop typical

Sustainable Energy Storage Designs

Work is under progress

On going/plan

• Determination of thermal behaviour of new material/component (measuring technique),

• Validated calculations and LCA tools for assessment of material/component,

• What is the affects of this technology on other aspects e.g. IAQ, fire.
