Abstract | Through the mechanism of stepping up and stepping down voltages with electrical power transformers, losses in the form of heat occur and are dissipated to the atmosphere. These losses have the opportunity to be recovered and upgraded to help support the thermal demands of buildings as allow carbon secondary heat source. The electrification of heat facilitates the uptake of electrically driven heat pumps that are efficient means of upgrading low temperature heat sources to commonly used temperatures and the employment of district heating networks enables the transition of these alternative heat sources into the economy. This paper describes the results discovered from an initial investigation on the contribution available from a transformer energy recovery scheme using the Southampton Bulk Supply Point substation and District Heating Scheme as a case study. Benefits to the heat sector and asset owner are analysed from the results considering the techno-economic, environmental and social performance with the aim to provide guidance to the engineering community for further in-depth feasibility studies on this waste energy recovery concept |
