Abstract: In light of the unstable energy market and decarbonization, an independent residential heating and electrical generation system is becoming increasingly sought after by homeowners. This paper aims to assess some of the systems that are commercially available to rural/remote homeowners, and to propose an original system for home heating and power generation. The energy transition has brought significant funding to research pertaining to solar cell and battery technology, however waste heat recovery systems are also a crucial and often overlooked aspect. The energy transition is about finding the balance in employing the technologies we have already developed for an intelligent use of resources and energy management, it is as much of a technical challenge as it is a societal one.
