This page collects discussion on practical heating / energy saving advice, including controversial issues.
Heating by electricity
- Generally, generation of electricity has only 30-50%.
Shall I use an electrical radiator / convector?
- overall electrical energy available: 830W as per 582000000000000KWh/80000000/24/365/h
- Question: can it be connected to a smart grid?
Electrical heating graded by efficiency
- Heizdecken
- radiators are more efficient, because in addition to heat they also convey energy via radiation
- convectors
- in principle, electrical heatings cannot be inefficient, as every use of electricity generates heat (e.g. you also could mine bitcoins, or alternative, support writing this wiki on your computer)
