The constant rise in oil and gas prices leads to the fact that the search for alternative types of energy does not stop. This also affected heating private houses - new alternative types of heating systems and boilers appear. It should be noted that in many countries these types have been used for a long time and have become common.
Heat pump
This system transfers heat from the ground to the room. It consumes electricity only for moving, therefore it is very economical - the consumption of 1 kW of electricity allows you to get 4.5 kW of heat. The only difficulty is that this system must be laid during the construction of a house, it is not suitable for finished buildings.
Biomass
This is a system in which biomass is used as fuel for the boiler - straw, sawdust, wood trimmings, grass and other agricultural waste. Ideal for farm use.
Wind generator
They have long been used not only on a large scale. If you live in a windy area, installing a small mill will provide you with electricity for heating and other needs. The installation pays off in a year or two.
Solar Panels
Suitable for places where most of the days of the year are sunny. Installing the roof of their photovoltaic converters has long been the norm in many countries. Such a roof completely supplies the house with electricity. Installation of FEP is quite cheap and pays off in a few years.
Solar collector
This is a relatively new method that allows solar energy to be harnessed without converting it to electricity. For this, a special heat exchanger is used, which heats the water with direct sunlight. The familiar pipe system then works.
One of the indisputable advantages of these types of heating is environmental friendliness - the harm caused to nature is minimal and the resources of the planet are not consumed.
