<h1>Danske Regioner Sundhed09UK Page 32</h1>solaR eneRgy We leave his office, walk over to one of the tallest buildings at the hospital, and take the stairs past the Cardiac Department on the first floor and the M2 Medical Department on the second. On the third floor Stig gets out a ladder, so that we can climb up the windowsill and out onto the roof. And here is the 280 sq. m. installation. The individual panels, which look like tinted windows, are connected to pipes which bring cold water into the panel system, where it is warmed and passed on to provide hot water for patients and staff. "On an annual basis, the system provides about 15 percent of the hospital's hot household water, but on days when the sun is shining, this rises to almost 100 percent," says Stig Toftebjerg. gReat potential Even though it can be expensive to install a solar thermal plant, it is a good investment. It pays for itself within 10-15 years, and after that the hot water is free. Moreover, the environment benefits from day one. Stig Tofteberg hopes however that in time the installation will contribute even more to both the hospital's finances and the environment. Today, much of the heat goes to waste, especially in summer, when the sun shines most, but there is less need for heating. consumption comparison 32,000 28,000 24,000 20,000 16,000 12,000 8,000 4,000 0 Jan 09 Feb 09 Mar 09 Apr 09 May 09 Jun 09 Jul 09 Aug 09 20,100 16,759 740 1,880 4,790 16,405 11,530 10,070 11,520 7,929 12,580 13,702 9,300 9,380 16,130 1,150 4,740 Sep 09 18,940 overall prognosis: Consumption measured: Heat = 124,775 Consumption measured: Solar heat = 62,870 Consumption measured: Heat Consumption measured: Solar heat It takes time he cooling equipment howls like an endless siren. Beneath the ceiling of the murky basement room hangs a tangle of cables in all kinds of colours. At one end of the room, grey pipes transport warm water from the solar thermal installation on the roof. "It was exciting at the start when we were working to get the system to run properly, but now I don't spend so much time on it," says Johnny Carlsen of the Technical Department of Silkeborg Regional Hospital. On the other hand, he certainly spent time on the system during its first year of operations. "Don't think that you can just set up some solar thermal collectors and let them look after themselves," T says the hospital's technical manager, Stig Tofteberg. It took a long time to adjust the system so that the amount of water going through matched its pumping speed, because the more the sun shines, the faster the water heats up, and vice versa. Today, however, Johnny Carlsen has complete control of things. On a laptop, he showed me the difference it has made, with the help of some column diagrams. "As you can see, at first we didn't make very efficient use of the sun, but with some technical changes and daily adjustments that has changed, so now we're close to one hundred percent," he says. 32 <a title="Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 34" href="http://epaper.mediegruppen.net/mdg/dr/4/34/">Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 34 : gReen teMa it Ecofriendly in seconds 34 </a>Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 34 - content: gReen teMa it Ecofriendly in seconds 34 <a title="Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 35" href="http://epaper.mediegruppen.net/mdg/dr/4/35/">Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 35 : gReen it by: signe markvard / photo: lars h. la</a>Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 35 - content: gReen it by: signe markvard / photo: lars h. la <a title="Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 33" href="http://epaper.mediegruppen.net/mdg/dr/4/33/">Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 33 : solaR eneRgy "It would be nice to have that surpl</a>Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 33 - content: solaR eneRgy "It would be nice to have that surpl <a title="Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 32" href="http://epaper.mediegruppen.net/mdg/dr/4/32/">Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 32 : solaR eneRgy We leave his office, walk over to </a>Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 32 - content: solaR eneRgy We leave his office, walk over to <a title="Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 27" href="http://epaper.mediegruppen.net/mdg/dr/4/27/">Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 27 : eCo-FRienDly solutions teMa "Consumption is inc</a>Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 27 - content: eCo-FRienDly solutions teMa "Consumption is inc <a title="Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 28" href="http://epaper.mediegruppen.net/mdg/dr/4/28/">Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 28 : PassiVe aiR Cooling The pentagram of by: signe</a>Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 28 - content: PassiVe aiR Cooling The pentagram of by: signe <a title="Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 29" href="http://epaper.mediegruppen.net/mdg/dr/4/29/">Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 29 : PassiVe aiR Cooling ringsted hospital Open-a</a>Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 29 - content: PassiVe aiR Cooling ringsted hospital Open-a <a title="Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 30" href="http://epaper.mediegruppen.net/mdg/dr/4/30/">Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 30 : solaR eneRgy "on an annual basis, the system pr</a>Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 30 - content: solaR eneRgy "on an annual basis, the system pr <a title="Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 31" href="http://epaper.mediegruppen.net/mdg/dr/4/31/">Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 31 : solaR eneRgy Silkeborg regional hospital the</a>Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 31 - content: solaR eneRgy Silkeborg regional hospital the <a title="Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 26" href="http://epaper.mediegruppen.net/mdg/dr/4/26/">Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 26 : eCo-FRienDly solutions The Medical Centre in Aa</a>Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 26 - content: eCo-FRienDly solutions The Medical Centre in Aa <a title="Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 23" href="http://epaper.mediegruppen.net/mdg/dr/4/23/">Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 23 : eneRgy MonitoRing holstebro hospital finding</a>Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 23 - content: eneRgy MonitoRing holstebro hospital finding <a title="Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 24" href="http://epaper.mediegruppen.net/mdg/dr/4/24/">Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 24 : eCo-FRienDly solutions 24 </a>Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 24 - content: eCo-FRienDly solutions 24 <a title="Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 25" href="http://epaper.mediegruppen.net/mdg/dr/4/25/">Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 25 : eCo-FRienDly solutions It takes many bulbs t</a>Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 25 - content: eCo-FRienDly solutions It takes many bulbs t <a title="Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 22" href="http://epaper.mediegruppen.net/mdg/dr/4/22/">Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 22 : eneRgy saVing suRpRises Today, it does not look</a>Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 22 - content: eneRgy saVing suRpRises Today, it does not look <a title="Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 20" href="http://epaper.mediegruppen.net/mdg/dr/4/20/">Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 20 : eneRgy saVing It went much better than we had </a>Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 20 - content: eneRgy saVing It went much better than we had <a title="Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 21" href="http://epaper.mediegruppen.net/mdg/dr/4/21/">Danske Regioner - Sundhed09UK - Page: 21 : eneRgy saVing H i there!
