The present invention relates to a close-contacting module capable of bringing a solar photovoltaic panel and a thermal collector of a solar photovoltaic-thermal panel into close contact without creating an interface. The close-contacting module comprises: a plurality of elastic members () which provide an elastic force that presses the thermal collector () toward the solar photovoltaic panel () from the backside of the thermal collector (); a support member () for supporting the elastic members (); and a pair of clips () provided at both ends of the support member () to fix the support member () to the edges of the solar photovoltaic-thermal panel ().

Flexible module for combining solar photovoltaic panel and solar thermal panel

Provided is a thermal energy network system including: a first thermal station that stores first thermal energy using a first heat source and supplies the first thermal energy to a first demand source used for residence or commerce; and a second thermal station that stores second thermal energy using a second heat source and supplies the second thermal energy to a second demand source used for industry, wherein the first thermal station and the second thermal station manage a base load of a thermal energy network, and the first thermal energy and the second thermal energy are transferred between the first thermal station and the second thermal station as needed.

Thermal energy network system

A heat-electricity combined production system includes: a solar cell module in which a flow path through which a heat source side heating medium heated by solar heat flows, is formed and which generates electricity by solar light; a geothermal heat exchanger that absorbs geothermal heat through the heat source side heating medium; a heat pump including a heat source side heat exchanger that performs heat-exchange between the heat source side heating medium and a refrigerant and a load side heat exchanger that performs heat-exchange between the refrigerant and a load side heating medium; a controller that control the heat source side heating medium to pass through both the solar cell module and the geothermal heat exchanger; and a plurality of pipes that connect the solar cell module, the geothermal heat exchanger and the heat pump.
