A heat pump can work with photovoltaics to use a larger portion of locally produced electricity.
How it is done
An energy management system or photovoltaic inverter can send a signal to the heat pump when there is excess production.
Temporary heat storage
The system can temporarily increase the buffer or DHW temperature within permissible limits.
Attention
Do not raise setpoints excessively, as this may decrease the COP and increase losses.
Goal
The operation should increase self-consumption without disrupting comfort or the reliability of the system.
