Heat Pumps
Heat Pump Specification
The Hybrid Solar Solution integrates an innovative water/water heat pump, with patented control system technology, into the PV-T array. The unit can be placed almost anywhere within a building unlike ground source or air source heat pumps. The RHI-eligible heat pump typically uses less electricity to operate than is produced by the PV-T panels over the course of a year.
