Abstract
An integrated renewable energy supply system is designed and proposed to effectively address high building energy consumption in Zhengzhou, China. This system effectively provides cold, heat, and electricity by incorporating various clean energy sources such as wind, solar, hydrogen, and geothermal energy. Technical and economic analyses are conducted to optimize the integration of these renewable sources. Technical and economic analyses are conducted to optimize the integration of these renewable sources. Rigorous system modeling and dynamic simulation using TRNSYS software evaluate the seamless integration and optimal functioning of the PV/T subsystem within the CCHP system. The interaction between Photovoltaic/Thermal (PV/T) and borehole heat exchanger (BHE) coupling is investigated, analyzing their impact on individual system performance. Furthermore, key indicators, including overall electricity consumption (OEC), life cycle cost (LCC), heat pump coefficient of performance (COPHP), and system coefficient of performance (COPSYS) are analyzed. The robust response surface methodology (RSM) and Box-Behnken experimental design approach are employed to show remarkable agreement between predicted and simulated values, with a maximum deviation of only 1.45%. The optimal configuration consists of a PV/T area of 132 m2, 20 wind turbines, 12 alkaline fuel cells, and 17 borehole heat exchangers, resulting in highly favorable outcomes: an OEC of −35648.72 kW∙h/year, an LCC of $209113.85, a COPSYS of 2.91, and a COPHP of 3.82. Moreover, detailed assessments of each subsystem's performance enhances our understanding of the system's overall operation, affirming the feasibility of the proposed integrated energy supply system for buildings.
