LARGE-SCALE SOLAR HEATING AND COOLING SYSTEMS IN EUROPE
In total, there are about 19 million m2 of glazed solar collectors in Europe, corresponding to about 13,5 GWth, where the majority of the collectors are installed in small systems with up to a few kWth. However, the relevant heat loads vary from a few kWth up to several GWth and about 9％ of the heating loads in Europe are covered by block and district heating systems. So far, only a minor part of the European collector market comprises large-scale applications. European large-scale solar heating plants having more than 500 m2 (~350 kWth) of solar collectors have only about 140 MWth altogether, i.e. about 1％ of the present installations in Europe. There is thus a need to develop large-scale applications in order to utilize the full potential of solar heat to cover existing heat loads.
