dachy budynków hotelowych Explanation: Minimising Energy Use in Tourist Accommodation Accommodation is a significant but not major contributor to global energy consumption and associated CO2 emissions, accounting for approximately 1 % of >the latter (HES, 2011). Whilst the 5.45 million hotel rooms in Europe represent half the global total number, European accommodation is estimated to be responsible for just 21 % of GHG emissions arising from accommodation globally (HES, 2011), suggesting better-than-average energy efficiency in European accommodation. Solar thermal Solar thermal collectors absorb energy from solar radiation and transfer it to heat water via heat exchangers. Solar collectors are well suited for installation on accommodation roofs with orientation from 90 º to 270 º from north (180 º – due south – is optimum), and peak output in summer months may coincide with peak occupancy and therefore DHW demand in many accommodation enterprises. There are two main types of solar collector: http://ec.europa.eu/environment/emas/takeagreenstep/pdf/BEMP... |
