Summary: The energy supplying system in nautic centres and yacht
harbours on insulated islands is investigated. The system enables electric
energy production, heating and cooling the facilities, consumption water
heating and drinking water production. In the system, alternative energy
sources as well as fossil fuels are utilized. The possibility for optimal
energy utilization is investigated. The system with maximum respect to
energy conservation and ecology is developed. Methods for energy and
economy optimization, as well as experimental methods are applied.
Keywords: Alternative energy sources, Energy sources optimization, Total energy system
Research goals: The goal of the investigation is to ensure a complex
energy supplying system for the nautic centre and yacht harbour on the
remote islands. That includes electric energy, heating, cooling and fresh
water supplies. The concept of the combined system which is to utilize
alternative energy sources (wind,solar, sensible heat from the sea or
rejected sanitary water, pyrolitic incineration heat etc.), and primary
energy sources (liquid fuel) has to ensure the yearly system costs
(energy, maintenance, investment) to be lower than costs for any other
customary used energy system, and to make the environment polution
negligible. The expected total efficiency (utilizable energy output
compared with primary energy input) of such a system (with optimized
energy sources) is about 180% during the winter and up to 300% during the
summer. Such an energy system can be used as the model for supplying
energy to tourist facilities and especialy nautic centres on insulated
islands. The nature devastation on islands and coastal areas as well would
be in that way reduced to a minimum, and the comfort requirements would be
completely fulfilled. The expected scientific contribution of the present
investigation is the system conception and the basic directions for
designers, architects and customers which will show the correct way in
planning and utilizing the tourist and nautic units on the islands and the
coast. Other information about the project.
