The combined production of heating, cooling and electricity (CHCP) or trigeneration in a grid-connected energy market may become profitable with respect to traditional systems, where electricity, heat, and cooling are produced or purchased separately. Namely, the use of solar energy as a primary energy source can lead to a substantial improvement, overcoming many of the traditional drawback associated with micro-cogeneration and trigeneration. So doing a CHCP system with renewable energy sources is realized, that is an attractive solution for domestic needs, provided that a cost-effective technical solution is available. This paper reviews and compares CHCP system and technologies based on solar energy.

Abstract
The combined production of heating, cooling and electricity (CHCP) or trigeneration in a grid-connected energy market may become profitable with respect to traditional systems, where electricity, heat, and cooling are produced or purchased separately. Namely, the use of solar energy as a primary energy source can lead to a substantial improvement, overcoming many of the traditional drawback associated with micro-cogeneration and trigeneration. So doing a CHCP system with renewable energy sources is realized, that is an attractive solution for domestic needs, provided that a cost-effective technical solution is available. This paper reviews and compares CHCP system and technologies based on solar energy.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
