  1. LOW CARBON LIVINGDomestic Technology Mix in an Electric Future

  2. Founded in 1973 The worlds largest electrical heating business Holds significant market positions in the domestic appliance markets Operates through 33 autonomous businesses throughout the world Employs c10,000 people Annual turnover $2bn Privately owned – finances expansion from its own resources Investment in brand building and constant product innovation are cornerstones of the Groups success Glen Dimplex Group

  3. Group Brands

  4. Heating via air or ground Source heat pump Low temperature Smartrad heat emitters Unvented hot water / thermal energy storage Hot water from a combination of solar thermal and heat pump Ventilation efficiency via MVHR Electrical consumption offset by solar PV Home Energy Management Systems Glen Dimplex “Zero Carbon” Home

  5. Decarbonising Electricity

  6. Decarbonising UK Grid Electricity Grammes of Carbon per kWh New Heating System

  7. CO₂Emission 7 tonnes p.a. Upgrading an Existing Home Typical UK 3 Bedroom Home YEAR 2011 • Built in 1970s • Limited insulation

  8. CO₂Emission 5 tonnes p.a. Upgrading an Existing Home Improved Fabric YEAR 2011 • Building fabric upgraded to latest standards • Reduces space heating load by 60%

  9. CO₂Emission 3.8 tonnes p.a. Upgrading an Existing Home Smart Enabled YEAR 2011 • Smart Meter • Thermal Energy Storage • Solar Thermal DHW

  10. CO₂Emission 2.7 tonnes p.a. Upgrading an Existing Home Decarbonising the Grid YEAR 2020 • Future proofed • Progressivelyless CO2 as the Grid decarbonises

  11. CO₂Emission 1.8 tonnes p.a. Upgrading an Existing Home Decarbonising the Grid YEAR 2030 • Future proofed • Progressivelyless CO2 as the Grid decarbonises

  12. Inside the Smart Electric Home A utility needs to communicate with loads beyond the meter

  13. Inside the Smart Electric Home A utility needs to communicate with loads beyond the meter Load is located in the products that actually use the electricity

  14. Zigbee Glen Dimplex and GE UTILITY Smart Meter WI-FI GE Nucleus Zigbee

  15. Demand Side Management Carbon Content of UK Grid on 23/24 May 2010 – 350-510g/kWh 42 GW Load 25 GW Load SOURCE: www.earth.org.uk

  16. Demand Side Management • A typical UK home today uses 14,000 kWh per annum. • Our new Smart Home will use 8,000 kWh (+ 15% on-site renewables) • Up to10kW per Smart Home is manageable, depending on season • EV’s offer even more

  17. Demand Side Management For every 1 million homes this means 10GW in winter. (Total System Demand Max 60GW)

  18. Shetland Islands NINES Project 9MW 25 – 50MW Demand 9MW
