Application of valley electric energy storage heating in iraq

Can Valley power phase change heat storage be used in commercial buildings?

The heating tests in commercial buildings show 53% savings in operating costs. The valley power PCHS heating technology shows good application prospects. The application of valley power phase change heat storage (PCHS) in commercial building heating has practical significance for the city's sustainable development.

How can a valley power PCHS system predict the energy storage duration?

Therefore, in the application of the system, it is possible to predict the energy storage duration and the amount of heat storage of the valley power PCHS system based on the building energy consumption data and the outdoor ambient temperature parameters of the heating seasons over the years.

Does Iraq need a constant electricity supply?

The most pressing concern for Iraq’s electricity sector is the need to secure a constant electricity supply. In this context, it is important to extend the transmission network to neigh- bouring countries. An example could be the agreement signed with Jordan in 2020 to connect the two countries« power grids.

What are the advantages of Valley power PCHS system?

As a result, based on the operation data and economic analysis of the commercial building, it can be seen that the valley power PCHS system applied to the winter heating of commercial buildings has the advantages of high energy storage density, stable energy storage temperature, flexible operation, modular installation and regulation.

How can Iraq move towards a renewables-based energy system?

Overall, for Iraq to move towards a renewables-based ener- gy system, it must introduce regulations covering renewable energies, focus on market development, invest in grid retro- fitting, and adopt energy eficiency measures, all of which are currently lacking in Iraq.

What is Iraq's energy system based on?

Iraq’s energy system is highly dependent on fossil fuel-based forms of energy, as the country is rich in fossil fuel resourc- es. It is currently the third largest global oil exporter and is likely to remain one of the three largest oil exporters for the foreseeable future.
