Advantages
The use of the MFB as a heat storage and transfer system to increase the share of RE in the heat demand has various advantages over other concepts:
- No additional loads
- No additional demand for material, especially compared to a buffer storage of 3 - 10 m³
- No additional space requirement
- No restriction of architectural design due to required floor heights and ceiling penetrations
- Reduced risk of mould due to active heat input
- Increase in thermal comfort
- Good combinability with other not fully controllable heat generators
Additional costs for the thermal activation is well below 5% of the total costs and can be compensated due to saved costs of operation.
