Heat pump with photovoltaics
Connecting electricity, heating and transport
Expanding renewable energy is one of the objectives of European energy policy. Electricity generated from renewable sources can be used for heat pumps and electric vehicles, among other things.
Sector coupling connects electricity, heating and transport. This allows renewable energy to be used across different applications. When heat pumps are combined with photovoltaics, part of the electricity needed to run the heat pump can be supplied by the PV system.

Easy integration
into your heat pump
For those who want a precise overview
This is how the KEBA heating control system KeEnergy is integrated into your heat pump:
Our innovative heating control system has a Modbus TCP interface. This means that it can be integrated into an energy management system that supplies the heat pump with information about the excess power fed into the grid. Alternatively, this information is passed on to the heat pump via an S0 meter. The Smart Grid Ready interface can also be used to control the heat pump with PV energy.
Modbus TCP interface
The energy manager determines the surplus power supplied to the grid and transmits it via Modbus TCP to the heat pump control. As soon as the PV surplus power exceeds a configured limit value, the heat pump is switched on and operated with PV power.
The KeEnergy heating control system regulates the power consumption of the variable-speed heat pump exactly to the power specification of the energy manager.
S0 interface
upstream or downstream of the heat pump
The feed-in meter with the S0 interface determines the surplus power supplied to the grid and passes it on to the heat pump control. As soon as the PV surplus power exceeds a configured limit value, the heat pump is switched on and operated with PV power.
The KeEnergy heating control system regulates the power consumption of the variable-speed heat pump exactly to the power specification of the energy manager.
