COMBINATION WITH SOLAR THERMAL ENERGY
Due to the high temperature resistance of PE-Xa (-40 C to 95 C), PE-Xa can be combined with solar thermal
systems.
Excess solar thermal energy in the summer can be stored in the ground to increase the COP.

CASE STUDY - BRIDGE HEATING
Winter operation:
Keeps the road snow and ice free - less requirement for gritting
Summer operation:
Thermal regeneration of the ground
Cools the asphalt surface -increasing lifespan of the road
