A 5-Star hotel in southwestern Ireland is undergoing major reconstruction and in turn is looking to be energy self-sufficient.

How can excess energy generated by hydro power plants be efficiently utilised. A combination of different storage technologies, including seasonal energy storage using thermal energy was conceptualised as an effective solution. An interesting and increasing relevant case-study for smaller and regional energy utilities.

W&P Engineering in cooperation with the Chair of Decarbonized Energy Systems of the Technical University of Berlin is assessing Balvanyos Resort on energy efficiency and the integration of renewable energy solutions.
