Customer ServiceThe absorption chillers equipped with thermal energy storage system can provide cost-effective technical feasible solution for space cooling. The economic assessment revealed that the solar cooling system can be competitive only when using as double-purpose systems (heating and cooling systems) which have more COP than single-purpose systems.
Cost: The capital cost of solar field and absorption chiller are both critical to the economic performance of system. Public funding and subsidies were found to be a critical requirement in order for solar absorption chillers to achieve a satisfactory economic performance.
According to a cost-benefit study of solar sorption cooling systems, absorption chillers account for roughly 82 % of the market share . This is due to their silent operation and flexible implementation .
When the energy prices vary, the minimum annual cost of solar absorption cooling is 223 thousand yuan, which is 1.7 times the maximum annual cost of PV cooling without subsidies of 128 thousand yuan. When considering the annual costs of the solar PV cooling and the solar absorption cooling, we count the whole year power generation of the PV system.
Figure 8. Costs comparison of the PV cooling system and the solar absorption cooling system in Chengdu. Figure 9. Costs comparison of the PV cooling system and the solar absorption cooling system in Haikou. Figures 7 – 9 show that the costs of solar absorption cooling are higher than the costs of PV cooling in all three areas.
Due to the intermittent nature of solar energy, a (fossil fuel-based) backup system is required in solar absorption chiller systems to meet the building load demand when solar inputs are insufficient. The backup system can use either gas or electricity (or rarely, a ground source) as the auxiliary energy source.
