Date: Title:

18th September 2009 Ground Source Heat Pump & Solar Photovoltaic System

1 INTRODUCTION
Regenesys UK Limited has been invited to provide a proposal for the installation of renewable energy systems at Lansdowne Village Hall, Calne. Following a site visit it was agreed that the appropriate technologies were a Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP) for space heating in the building and Solar Photovoltaic (PV) panels for the generation of electricity. This document provides a costed proposal detailing how this may be achieved.

2 REQUIREMENTS
The space heating requirement is to supply a ground source heat pump to heat the building through the existing under floor system which is currently supplied by two gas boilers, i.e. there are two discreet systems. It is intended that both the current under floor systems will be supplied by a single heat pump. This is considered in detail in section 5. The electricity requirement is to design and install a Solar PV system that will contribute towards the electrical consumption of the building and with the proposed introduction of the feed in tariffs should generate some income for the hall. This is covered in more detail in section 6.13 and the size of system is considered in section 6.2.

The aerial photograph of the property (before the latest extension) is shown below:

4 PLANNING PERMISSION
No Planning Permission is required for the installation of the ground source heat pump. In the case of solar panels if the property/building is in a conservation area, is a listed building, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) or National Park planning permission is normally required. The Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (Amendment) (England) Order 2008 was recently passed and came into force in England on the 6 th April 2008. This normally allows homeowners to install solar panels without needing to seek planning permission. Solar panels must not protrude more than 200mm from the roof slope, and stand alone panels must not exceed 4m in height, 9 square metres in area or stand less than 5m from the property boundary. Notwithstanding this it is advisable to contact your Local Planning Authority and Building Control to inform them what you are intending to install.

5 GROUND SOURCE HEAT PUMP SYSTEM

5.1 Heat Pump Overview Heat pumps are amongst the most efficient heating and hot water systems available today. As the diagram below shows they operate by absorbing a large quantity of lowgrade energy from the environment and raise to a level where it can be used to produce hot water and heating.

Step 1: A large quantity of energy absorbed from the environment is transferred to the refrigerant inside the heat pump (evaporator). This causes the temperature of the refrigerant to rise (even at sub-zero temperatures) causing it to change from a liquid to gaseous state. Step 2: The refrigerant is then compressed, using an electrically driven compressor, reducing its volume but causing its temperature to rise significantly. Step 3: A heat exchanger (condenser) then extracts the heat from the refrigerant to heat water for central heating, underfloor heating or domestic hot water. Step 4: After giving up its heat energy the refrigerant turns back to a liquid and after passing through an expansion valve can once again absorb energy from the environment, restarting the cycle. Heat pumps are so efficient because for every 1kW of electricity used to power the compressor, between 3kW and 4kW of heating energy are produced, giving an efficiency of 300-400%.

Issue 1

Heat pumps have two common forms, air source which absorb energy directly from the air, and ground source which absorb energy from the ground. It is also possible to extract energy from water where there is a sufficient and convenient body of water available. As can be seen from the table below both air and ground source heat pumps perform well by comparison with other forms of heating in terms of both cost and reducing CO emissions:

5.2

Peak Heat Load The peak load at Lansdowne Hall is estimated at between 30kW and 35kW based on the plan provided and an annual gas usage of approximately 68,000 kWh per annum. The heat pump proposed (see below) has a peak output of 32kW. We would suggest that one, or even both, gas boilers could be retained as a top up for the heat pump in the coldest weather. They could also then act as a backup in the unlikely event of a problem with the heat pump. If the gas boiler(s) were retained they would be integrated with the heat pump so that the heat pump would normally provide the full heat load but in the coldest weather (the actual temperature would be adjustable) the gas boiler(s) would also be switched on.

5.3

Heat pump ground collectors There is insufficient space available at the hall to install horizontal collectors so the recommended approach would be to drill 6 boreholes to a depth of 100m and install 40mm collector loop in each. The boreholes need to be positioned a minimum of 6m apart which should be no problem in the area identified (on the somewhat out-of-date aerial image) below:

The header pipes from the boreholes would then be led to an external manifold chamber and from there a flow and return pipe would be led to the heat pump itself. There is very limited room available within the hall to site the heat pump itself so it is likely that the heat pump would be sited externally, within an enclosure similar to the picture below, and then insulated heating pipes would be run into the building. The buffer store, ie cylinder, would need to be housed inside the building.

Heat Pump Specification The heat pump we would propose to install is a Kensa 32kW twin compressor model, as highlighted below:

6 SOLAR PV SYSTEM
6.1 Available Roof Area There is a south facing roof available and a large east/west facing roof. Avoiding the shading on the former leaves an available roof area of @ 15m x 6m. Obviously if grant funding could be obtained for a larger system then the east/west roof could also be used but initially we have assumed use of the south facing roof which will produce the maximum efficiency from the panels. 6.2 Solar PV Panels Solar PV collectors are designed to generate electricity, which is normally fed through an inverter and back to the grid in what is known as a grid connected system see diagram below.

Solar PV System Regenesys UK is an authorised installer of Schott products and the Solar PV collectors proposed will be of a similar design to the example shown below.

Issue 1

Schott Solar PV Collector Schott 165W Collectors are proposed. Each collector is rated at 165W (peak). The dimension of each panel is 1620x810mm. Each panel weighs 15.5kg.

Size of System Using Schott Solar 165W panels the following size of system is proposed:

The performance of solar PV systems is impossible to predict with certainty due to the variability in the amount of solar radiation (sunlight) from location to location and from year to year. This estimate is based upon the Governments standard assessment procedure for energy rating of buildings (SAP) and is given as guidance only. It should not be considered as a guarantee of performance. Note that the grid connection of PV systems is governed by G83/1 and G59/1 recommendations. Under G83/1 Solar PV systems of up to 16 amps per phase are allowed providing the Distribution Network Operator (DNO) is notified within 28 days of commissioning. Solar PV systems larger than 16 amps per phase require discussions with and permission from the DNO before any installation takes place. The size of system proposed falls within the G83/1 requirements (i.e. less than 16 amps per phase). 6.4 Proposed Array As agreed the array will be two rows of 18 panels mounted in a portrait orientation on the south facing roof. They will need to be positioned so that no shadow is cast from the main building. 6.5 Method of Installation The panels will be fitted using an on roof mounting kit that consists of roof anchors, base rail and fixings.

6.6

Cabling There will be a need to run the cables from the panels to the inverter and from the inverter to existing consumer unit.

Page 10

Issue 1

6.7

Inverter The dc output from the panels is converted into a standard supply (240v, 50Hz) using inverter(s), which have a conversion efficiency of approximately 95%. The inverter generates grid quality power with a maximum Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) of less than 4% and is fully protected. Although the inverter is sealed to IP65 standard and is completely weatherproof. It will be installed in the loft together with the OFGEM meter. The specification of the inverters is as follows:

6.8

Display Option The display option that can be installed in the building will be similar to the following:

Page 11

6.9

Duration of Installation Normally an installation of this size takes about 3 to 4 days to complete. The main factor is the condition and the construction of the roof and how easily the roof anchors can be installed. If the roof tiles/slates are of good quality and are of a standard size then standard roof anchors can be fitted. Where the roof tiles/slates are in a poor condition or particularly large then specially modified roof anchors are required that take longer to install. Sometimes the true extent of the roof tiles/slates is not apparent until the installation begins. Please note that the health and safety of our installation staff is our highest priority. Installing solar panels involves working at height and therefore any adverse weather represents a risk to our staff. Adverse weather conditions can therefore delay or extend the installation period.

6.10 Completion of Installation Once the installation is complete, tested and commissioned you will receive the relevant test certificates, commissioning certificate, user operating manuals and warranty information.

6.11 SSEG Registration Once the system has been installed Regenesys UK will register the system with your Distribution Network Operator (DNO*). Regenesys UK will complete a Small Scale Embedded Generation (SSEG) G83 commissioning document that details the system and the way it has been implemented, tested etc. This is a requirement for all Solar PV systems that are less than 16 amps per phase. Note however it is your responsibility to sign up with an electricity supplier that gives you the best arrangement with regards to electricity generation from Solar PV. *DNO include EDF Energy, United Utilities, Scottish & Southern etc.

6.12 Current Payback for Electricity Generated The current situation is described below. In some cases the electricity suppliers buy back schemes include the ROCS payments, ie the customer just receives payments from the suppliers who claim the ROCS on their behalf. In some scheme the customer has to claim the ROCS themselves. 6.12.1 Renewable Obligation Certificates (ROCS) The electricity regulator OFGEM manages ROCs. Under this scheme all renewable generators regardless of size are allowed to receive ROCs. Currently one ROC is given for every 1000kWh (1 MWh) of renewable electricity produced. They are worth @3-5p/kWh and are claimed on an annual basis from OFGEM. Two ROCs will be awarded for every 1 MWh of renewable electricity produced. Note that ROCs are rounded up to the nearest MWh from 0.5MWh upwards.

6.12.2 Electricity Export/Buy Back Schemes A number of Energy Companies operate an export/buy back scheme for the renewable electricity produced. An export meter can be installed which calculates the amount of electricity being exported rather than total generated. Exported energy is the extra energy produced by the renewable generator that is exported to the electricity network after the site (i.e. home, commercial property) has met its energy demand. The electricity company will pay for each kWh exported. The electricity company will stipulate if the meter is to be read by the owner or their own meter reader and whether the system owner will be paid annually or bi-annually. Export meters can be purchased from and installed by a local area meter operator.

6.13 Proposed Payback for Electricity Generated The Government is introducing the feed in tariff (probably renamed clean energy cash back) from April 2010. This is a scheme whereby the energy companies will buy the energy (total generation) produced by a solar PV system. The term of the tariff is 25 years. Currently the figure, which has been out for consultation, and should be ratified very shortly is 36.5p for every kWh produced for retro fit systems up to 4kW peak, and 31p for every kWh produced for retro fit systems between 4 and 10kW peak. Your system will qualify for the feed in tariff providing it is installed by an accredited MCS company. In addition to the payment above, which is for all electricity generated by the PV system whether consumed at the hall or fed back to the grid, there will obviously be a saving in your electricity bill based on the electricity you are generating, plus some of your output will be fed into the grid. There will be a second payment from your supplier for the electricity that is fed back but until the confirmed scheme is announced and the electricity suppliers amend their export buy backs schemes we wont know precisely what rates they will be offering.

9 SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE

Solar PV systems are very reliable and often require very little servicing and maintenance, as there are no moving parts in the PV panels. As the panels are normally installed at the same angle as the roof they keep reasonably clean through rainwater running over the PV panel surface. However if required we can offer a maintenance and safety inspection for the installation at a cost of 350 per visit. This could be annual but biennial or triennial would normally be quite sufficient. This covers the inspection of all connectors, cabling, control devices together with an inspection of the panels and the mounting frames. The ground source system should also have a long life and does not require annual servicing as would a gas boiler. But again, if required, we could provide a periodic check to ensure that fluid levels, pressures and operation of all pumps are to spec.
