IEA SHC Task 49/IV - Deliverable B6 - Integrating Solar Heat into Industrial Processes (SHIP)
Booklet on results of Task49/IV Subtask B
May 2016 - PDF 0.86MB

When integrating solar heat into industrial or commercial processes, the aim is to identify the most technically and economically suitable integration point and the most suitable integration concept. Due to the complexity of heat supply and distribution in industry, where a large number of processes might require thermal energy, this task is usually not trivial. Within Task 49/IV Subtask B several documents have been developed to assist with the necessary steps when planning the integration of a solar process heat plant.

IEA SHC Task 49/IV - Deliverable B5 - Potential Enhancement of Solar Process Heat by Emerging Technologies
March 2016 - PDF 0.89MB
Within IEA Task 49, Subtask B is focusing on the integration possibilities of solar heat in industrial processes. In this context, also the questions are tackled: - Which new technologies can stimulate the use of renewable (solar) heat? - Which technologies must be developed for reacting best on the hybrid energy supply in future?

In this catalogue, software and hardware components are described that can help realising the integration of solar process heat in an advanced way.

IEA SHC Task 49/IV - Deliverable B3 - Updated Efficiency Finder
December 2015 - PDF 1.24MB
The Efficiency Finder, also known as Zero Emission WikiWeb or Matrix of Indicators is a reference book that contains important information on unit operations, energy supply technologies, process technologies, best practice examples, and guidelines for implementation of efficiency measures and renewable energy technologies. The website (http://wiki.zero-emissions.at/) can be used as an inter-active compendium by process engineers, energy managers, RES experts, etc. to support their work e.g. by providing measures for energy efficiency and finding suitable solar applications in production processes.
