Abstract
Control algorithm is the most important element of hybrid energy system while it is in operation. It determines energy effects of each segment of system, which has influence on efficiency of whole system and operating costs. This paper presents the results of research studies which enabled control algorithm of hybrid energy system combining heat pump, solar installation and phase change material (PCM) storage tank to be tested and optimised. Matlab Simulink software was used to perform simulations. A great advantage of this software is the possibility to compile and implement control algorithm in programmable logic controller (PLC). The algorithm that was implemented in PLC is in form of function block diagram, which makes the entire PLC programme very clear.
