Who has experience in "HEATING WITH ICE" ?

[bumcrack]

I was off that day we did German.

Well, I'm sorry about that!
I've had a look in English but the existence of this way of heating doesn't seem to be even acknowledged outside Krautland.
They somehow always seem to be one step ahead, we are just beginning to play with PV, when they've already lost interest in it and have moved on to experiment with ice!
What happened with the old British ingenuity?

They have not lost interest with PV, they have reached grid parity.

It looks like they are using that as a thermal store to ren the heatpump, using a crude solar thermal "grid" to add heat to the store, in addition to that, look at the earth that they have there, it would conduct heat quite well, unlike the "brash" we have around here.

What happened with the old British ingenuity?

The ingenuity is still there. It's just that Germany is more receptive to ingenuity than Britain is.
