Hybrid energy systems for applications in small or medium-sized building touristic facilities in a Mediterranean climate

In this paper hybrid energy solutions are analysed and elaborated as suitable options for applications in small or medium-sized touristic building facilities in a Mediterranean climate. Namely, the majority of energy demands in a typical tourist building facility are to ensure domestic hot water and space cooling capacity. However, another also important goal is to ensure as much as possible, the implementation i.e. integration of clean energy technologies to reduce impact on the environment and to be consistent with major EU energy policy goals. In relation to the previously mentioned main goals, we analysed possible implementation of heat pump systems (with enabled waste heat recovery) coupled with photovoltaic systems or in another case with a HT-PEM fuel cell system with a reformer. For each proposed solution, a technical and economic aspect was provided. Finally, the proposed hybrid energy concepts generally present viable energy solutions that are competitive with current retail prices of electricity on the EU market.
