Other systems havemore specific requirements to the geological situati<strong>on</strong>of the area. A geothermal heat storage for exampledoes not work in an area with a flow of the groundwater. For the simulati<strong>on</strong> of scenario 2 a smallerthermal storage compared to scenario 1 was assumed,because there is no necessity for a seas<strong>on</strong>al heatstorage system.For the simulati<strong>on</strong> model a commercial solar collectorwas taken (s. Table 3). It is a flat plate collector with aanti-reflecti<strong>on</strong> glass <strong>and</strong> a gross area of about 2,6 m².Its efficiency is 84,4 % (calculated according to EN12975). The simulati<strong>on</strong> uses specific given parameters.Those are shown in Table 3.Table 3: used input parameters for solar simulati<strong>on</strong>Annual heating energy(calculated with givenmethod)Flow temperature 67 °CReturn temperature 45 °CSlope of collector 55°Azimuth of buildingType of collectorStorage capacityHeat exchangerefficiencyMiscellaneous lossesPump efficiency(for grid integrati<strong>on</strong>)Time periodScenario 1: 1076 MWhScenario 2: 493 MWhScenario 3: 1071 MWhScenario 4: 11,6 MWhScenario 5: 11,6 MWh-45° (southeast)WagnerSolar L20 ARScenario 1: 1000 l/m²Scenario 2: 100 l/m²Scenario 3: 1 l/m²Scenario 4: 100 l/m²Scenario 5: 10 l/m²80 %5 % if storage is used(smaller grid)8 % if integrated intolarge grid40 %20 yearInternal rate of return Scenario 1: 8,5 %Scenario 2: 8,5 %Scenario 3: 8,5 %Scenario 4: 5,0 %Scenario 5: 5,0 %Increase of heat price per 2 %yearFinancial support 30 %For a comparis<strong>on</strong> of the different scenarios the heatcost per kWh were calculated.The calculati<strong>on</strong> of the emissi<strong>on</strong>s is based <strong>on</strong> theoperati<strong>on</strong> of the system <strong>and</strong> not <strong>on</strong> its total life cycle.For solar thermal heat the CO 2 emissi<strong>on</strong>s <strong>on</strong>ly arisefrom the used electricity for the necessary pumps.Included in the calculati<strong>on</strong> is <strong>on</strong>ly the pump energy forthe solar thermal collectors <strong>and</strong>, if necessary, toincrease the pressure for the integrati<strong>on</strong> into theheating grid flow pipe. The CO 2 emissi<strong>on</strong>s for theGerman electricity grid are given with 506 g/kWh.For the calculati<strong>on</strong> without a thermal storage system[scenario 3] it was assumed that the produced solarheat can directly be distributed throughout a districtheating network. This would make it possible to savethe investments of a seas<strong>on</strong>al heat storage system <strong>and</strong>also reduce the losses within the thermal storagesystem.For those calculati<strong>on</strong>s the same heat amount was usedthan in scenario 2. But in this case it is not possible tocover 50 % of the heat dem<strong>and</strong> of the total grid. Just asmall amount, for example the losses of the grid <strong>and</strong>the base load, can be produced with solar thermaltechnologies without a thermal storage.Another opti<strong>on</strong> would be to integrate small systems intothe district heating grid. In this case the operator of thegrid would not run the facility by itself. The heatproducer could use a solar thermal collector for its ownheat dem<strong>and</strong> but without a thermal storage system.Instead of using an in-house thermal storage (what isgetting very large if a seas<strong>on</strong>al heat storage system isused) the heating grid could be used. For the singlehouse technology an internal rate of return of 5 % wasused for the ec<strong>on</strong>omic calculati<strong>on</strong> (average percentageof building credit [4]). Furthermore the financial supportis a little different because of different regulati<strong>on</strong>s forlarge <strong>and</strong> small systems. In the following those twocalculati<strong>on</strong>s are named ―scenario 4‖ for the heatproducti<strong>on</strong> of a single-family house with a thermalstorage <strong>and</strong> ―scenario 5‖ for the calculati<strong>on</strong> without athermal storage.Summary of different scenarios:Scenario 1 Solar fracti<strong>on</strong> of 50%Seas<strong>on</strong>al thermal storage includedScenario 2100% heat producti<strong>on</strong> of hot tap waterBuffer heat storage included, but no seas<strong>on</strong>althermal storage135

Using the shallow geothermal heat is<strong>on</strong>ly possible in combinati<strong>on</strong> with a heat pump.Therefore, for a large integrati<strong>on</strong> into heating grids thedeep geothermal energy is the favoured <strong>on</strong>e.Furthermore in the upper valley of the river Rhein(Oberrheingraben) the geothermal heat can be used fora combined heat <strong>and</strong> power producti<strong>on</strong> because of itshigh temperature. In Germany this gives the possibilityto get a payment for the electricity based <strong>on</strong> the EEGwhich grows for 3 ct/kWh if the heat is used as well.For a comparis<strong>on</strong> to the solar thermal heat ageothermal power plant in L<strong>and</strong>au, Germany is used asa reference.This project began in 2004 <strong>and</strong> at the end of 2007 thepower plant started its first electricity producti<strong>on</strong>. Thefirst heat output was planned for 2009.The power plant uses the ORC process (OrganicRankine Cycle) to generate electricity. A drill hole witha depth of 3000 m c<strong>on</strong>nects to thermal water with atemperature with up to 160 °C which is cooled downduring electricity producti<strong>on</strong> to 70 °C. The whole yearlyenergy output of the power plant is planned to be22.000 MWh electricity <strong>and</strong> 9.200 MWh heat. One ofthe major benefits of the geothermal heat producti<strong>on</strong> isthe base load which is always available. On the otherh<strong>and</strong> this gives the problem that the heat is alsoavailable in the summer time <strong>and</strong> needs to be cooleddown in other ways.The calculated emissi<strong>on</strong>s of the power plant are0 g CO 2 /kWh because the electricity producti<strong>on</strong> has noemissi<strong>on</strong>s <strong>and</strong> for the pumps the own electricity can beused. [6]Currently the power plant runs with a limited output dueto small earthquakes in the area of the drilling hole <strong>and</strong>does not deliver heat until now. Additi<strong>on</strong>al geologicalstudies are d<strong>on</strong>e right now <strong>and</strong> a heat output shouldstart after they are finished.Heat producti<strong>on</strong> with biomassThe heat producti<strong>on</strong> from biomass is technically verysimilar to the fossil fuel powered heating plants.Therefore the integrati<strong>on</strong> into existing district heatinggrids is the easiest way compared to the otherrenewable energy sources.The exact technology depends <strong>on</strong> the used fuels <strong>and</strong>therefore the ec<strong>on</strong>omic calculati<strong>on</strong> is mainly based <strong>on</strong>the price development of the biomass.The emissi<strong>on</strong>s of such a system are by way ofcalculati<strong>on</strong> zero, because the emitted CO 2 was firstlybound by the biomass during its growing period. If thebiomass is planted in an area which was deforested forthat, the emissi<strong>on</strong>s are not zero any more. The formerforest was a CO 2 sink which does not exist anymore<strong>and</strong> should be included in the calculati<strong>on</strong>. Furthermorethe transport <strong>and</strong> processing of the biomass should beincluded. [19]Fossil fuels for comparis<strong>on</strong>In our days the district heating grid in Mannheim is fedwith heat from a fossil fuel fired CHP plant. The heatprices from that system are much lower than therenewable heat. Looking into the future it mainlydepends <strong>on</strong> the price development of CO 2 emissi<strong>on</strong>s<strong>and</strong> the coal price. [8]The emissi<strong>on</strong>s of such a system are very high, even ifthe used heat is more or less waste heat. To reducethose, a CCS technology can be implemented in thefuture.RESULTSThe results of the simulati<strong>on</strong> are shown in Tab. 4 <strong>and</strong>Fig. 2 <strong>and</strong> 3.In c<strong>on</strong>clusi<strong>on</strong> the heat price is lower if the collector areaincreases (ec<strong>on</strong>omy-of-scale). Furthermore the use ofa district heating grid instead of a thermal storagelowers the heat cost extremely.For scenario 1 it is necessary to install a gross area of3080 m² solar thermal collectors. 1076 MWh heat canbe produced in combinati<strong>on</strong> with a 2820 m³ hot waterstorage. The heating costs calculated with the givenframework c<strong>on</strong>diti<strong>on</strong>s are 11,2 ct/kWh. To operate thecollector area, pumps are needed which c<strong>on</strong>sumeelectricity. The emissi<strong>on</strong>s of that electricity are, based<strong>on</strong> the produced heat, 7,9 g CO 2 /kWh.In scenario 2, 1916 m² solar thermal collectors need tobe installed. Combined with a hot water buffer storagewith a volume of 175 m³, 494 MWh of heat can beproduced. The financial calculati<strong>on</strong> over 20 years lead136
