Comparative study regarding the energy supply of a high-tech building

The paper presents a comparative study among six different solutions regarding the energysupply of a high-tech building. All the solutions take into account the coupling of the sourcesof energy and the energy storage, considering equipments like: boilers, compression andabsorption refrigeration machines, thermal motors, fuel cells, storage tanks and the use of theunderground water and an artificial lake. The functioning of the different solutions wassimulated using Simulink - Matlab. The second part of the paper presents technical andeconomical considerations of the proposed solutions, permitting the choice of an optimal one.
