The solar farm will produce hot water at 55C during the day and this will be boosted to 80C overnight when electricity is cheapest to allow the system to meet peak morning demand. Using a solar energy installation, Star Renewable Energy plans to build a large scale heat pump system to supply E.ON's community energy center in Exeter, providing it with heating and hot water. The project will be funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) through its Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy.
