Technical feasibility study to scale thermal heat generator

热能是社会的基本需求，约占所有能源消耗的一半。传统上，热量是通过燃烧化石燃料产生的。零碳供热解决方案的应用有限，部分原因是成功解决了减少排放、提高供应安全性和降低成本的能源“三难”的所有要素。该项目的主要目标是探索和评估适合将新型热发生器扩展到适合轻工业热能消费者的尺寸的替代设计。该项目将采用全系统的方法，利用多学科的项目团队，采用英国专利技术，收集可再生动能，如风能，河流或潮汐流，在不依赖电力或其他形式的能源的情况下产生热量。该项目的成功结果将直接影响商业生产模型的开发和推出的目标。

Heat is a basic need of society, accounting for approximately half of all energy consumed. Heat is traditionally generated through the combustion of fossil fuels. Zero carbon solutions to heat have limited adoption, in part due to issues in successfully addressing all elements of the energy ‘trilemma’ of reducing emissions, improving security of supply and reducing cost.This project has the key objectives to explore and evaluate alternative designs suitable for scaling a novel heat generator to a size suitable for light industrial consumers of thermal energy. A whole-system approach will be adopted, exploiting the multidisciplinary project team.The patented UK technology employed harvests renewable kinetic energy sources, such as wind, river or tidal flows, to generate heat without dependence on electricity or other forms of energy.The successful outcome of this project will directly influence the goals for the development and launch of commercial production models.
