Free talk on hybrid solar modules for heat pumps at Munich ecological centre in Bogenhausen

The Bauzentrum München (Munich Building Centre) and the Ökologisches Bildungszentrum München (ÖBZ, Munich Ecological Education Centre) are holding a free talk on hybrid solar modules on Wednesday, 21 October, at 6.30pm. The event takes place at the ÖBZ in Bogenhausen, Englschalkinger Straße 166.

The talk is titled "Efficient energy use through hybrid solar modules: generating electricity and heat for modern heat pumps". Attendance is free, but registration is required at https://t1p.de/10niq. Information on registering is available at mvhs.de/anmeldung-beratung.

A hybrid solar module, also known as a PVT module, combines photovoltaics (PV) and solar thermal (T) in a single component. It is particularly suited to systems that need both electricity and heat, such as those combined with a heat pump. According to the organisers, PVT modules make it possible to meet a house's heating needs with significantly lower electricity consumption.

Graduate engineer Axel Horn will look at typical designs for such heating systems, the key conditions that need to be considered and the advantages of these solutions.
