Integrated community energy and harvesting systems: A climate action strategy for cold climates
Abstract
In this article, the Integrated Community Energy and Harvesting System is introduced, a grid modernization solution for cold climates that incites a paradigm shift in virtual power plant design and operation. The focus is on system-wide GHG reductions by using variable temperature micro-thermal networks and prioritizing the harvesting of existing residual (waste) energy resources in communities, such as high-grade heat from decentralized …
