Power to Heat 

The advantages of power-to-heat systems: 

• High efficiency thanks to almost loss-free conversion of electricity into heat 
• Flexibility in the provision of heat 
• Contribution to the energy transition through the use of renewable energies 
• Reduction of CO2 emissions Use in industry, commerce and district heating networks 
• Requirements of the balancing energy market (SRL, MRL) are met

Initial situation: Why Power to Heat systems?

There is a high demand for balancing energy in Europe. This is due to differences in generation and consumption that lead to an imbalance in the grid frequency. Generation and consumption systems that can operate flexibly and could benefit from this demand. Many operators of such plants are already exploiting this potential or intend to do so in the near future.

Flexible systems can counteract unbalanced grid conditions by changing their output. 

Concept

The compact power-to-heat systems from Klöpper-Therm were designed to meet precisely these requirements. They are suitable as consumers for grid stabilization, as self-sufficient hot water generators in the municipal sector and for securing the district heating supply. Our warm and hot water generators are suitable for all standard water qualities and can therefore be integrated directly and quickly into your water circuit.

The functional principle of the warm and hot water generators is based on the direct heating of the flow water via a large number of resistance heating elements. For control purposes, these are combined in groups, which are either switched in stages or controlled continuously via a thyristor power controller.

Combination with generation plants

Combined heat and power plants that want to offer negative balancing energy often have little flexibility on the balancing energy market. This is due to the fact that when output is reduced, heat generation also decreases, meaning that the heat sink cannot be adequately supplied. 

Power-to-heat (P2H) technology enables these systems to combine heat and electricity more effectively. This allows them to achieve greater flexibility and tap into additional sources of income. 

By combining CHP and power-to-heat, the heat sink can be supplied continuously with heat in a stable and contractual manner even during shutdown operation. The heat generated can be transported to consumers via the existing heating infrastructure. As a result, the existing heating networks can act as buffer storage for peak loads in the electricity grid. This is both economically sensible and economically attractive for the individual plant.
