The climate issue is becoming more and more of an investment decision driver. It is no more politically accepted just to have an ice rink for fun.
Without minimising the non renewable energy input
Without heat recuperation and use at site
Without using the “waste space” of e.g., roof
The more electric cars become the norm, the more sense it makes to combine solar pool heating and photovoltaic into one system to avoid “cannibalisation”.
Currently, photovoltaic and heat pump technology is not very attractive, from a cost perspective, to be used for energy production.
But it is VERY ATTRACTIVE to be used as an integrated concept for something that is a high energy consumer.
To heat a swimming pool with solar requires a roof surface of about the same size as the pool. Often there is more roof space than needed. We install our solar absorber system on the roof as a perfect, cost effective heating system. To make this system even better:
To double the investment, add the SOLKAV Hybrid PV foil on the absorber system
Enlarge the area by 50% to compensate the “solar loss” to PV.
Enjoy the more efficient PV system - because the pool solar “cool” the PV system
o use the new Photovoltaic Electricity, buy an electric car and charge it with solar power.
Do you have a large outdoor or indoor pool are? You need all the energy your roof can produce? Reduce your demand significantly!!
An ice rink or an indoor snow area is pure ENERGY DESTRUCTION in return for entertainment.
We shall not sacrifice entertainment and fun but we can minimise the waste of energy.
By being 100% heat AUTARK
Producing around 50% of the energy demand on the roof of the hall.
100% heat recuperation and “piggy back” heat pump system:
To supply heat for air drying system (absorption drying for main hall to have perfect ice)
For all heating devices, including radiators and water features.
PV coverage on the roof
Up to 20% peak efficiency and 4m2 needed for 1kWp
To cover approx. 50% of the electrical demand of the ice hall
Roof construction as a panel system or flexible foil system
Or with flexible foil system
Available space is always an expensive issue. Roofs for solar systems can be used for PV so it is better to double up the use around the pool.
In this case it is a soft, non slip surface for kids and adults. It never gets too hot as stone surfaces can. It can be easily cleaned with high pressure water. Its solar effect is only 20% less efficient than roof solutions!
Wasting floor space for both, one space for an ice rink and another just for sports is luxury. By using the same space for sports and ice, you save 50% on space! The Sport Solar tartan surface has no restrictions compared to a pure tartan track.
You can use it as: tennis court, badminton court, basketball court, etc. Ultimately also as a multi-purpose sports area.
