| Abstract: | Economic study has been done for the heat pumps, biogas and solar collectors along with the phase change materials (PCM) storage and the results have been compared for various costs. The different combinations and options for the heating and cooling requirements, the heating capacities and the comparisons of different costs are studied in detail. It has been found that all the costs are much lesser for a solar collector system followed by the biogas plant and the heat pump systems. On the other hand, all the costs are found to be the highest in the case of an air cooled geothermal heat pump system, while it is reverse in case of the water cooled solar collector system. |
