This is what I seemed to understand while searching the net.

What I am looking for now is a "turnkey" product to install or have installed to benefit from the tax credit in favor of renewable energies. But for the moment I have not identified a manufacturer, importer or installer. :frown:

Well seen..
And it's so simple though ... :?

The big problem is that currently, there is nothing on the market affordable by the private individual, in particular for low temperature delta stirling ... Otherwise, there is self-construction, the DIY "home", and for stirling, it's not easy ... see topic: https://www.econologie.com/forums/moteur-stirling-t1244-180.html

The English company Microgen offers a solution that seems adapted to the needs of individuals
see here http://www.micropower.co.uk/news/newsrelease27.html

I also found that
http://www.whispergen.com/main/PRODUCTS/

and I finally came across another post on econology :)

and the De Dietrich product interests me particularly because my solar water heater is precisely of this brand ...

at the time I contacted whispergen who replied "we do not sell in europe sir" ............

otherwise if you know an aluminum machine you can always see aluminum kits on ebay it will work brilliantly!

an American does it and even offers the aluminum tour in LATHE language.

in association it should work, like the panel commands?

several plans available on my recently updated site:
http://www.nrjrealiste.fr/stirling/stirling.html

especially the one for dish stirling, the one that can be put on a satellite dish with flexible adhesive mirror ............................

Hello,

I live in Haute Savoie and there is a lot of industry.
If anyone is interested, I can search the phone book to find someone to make the parts.
But I have to know what type of parts it is, if it is bar turning, stamping, foundry, ... And the size. (some companies work on large, others on small)

So in fact if I understood correctly, there are no manufacturers / sellers of Stirling engines in Europe?

I also have the idea to do the same, ie to mount a Stirling engine on solar panels to produce current.

But is this type of engine powerful?
Will it cool the panels enough so they don't overheat?
Are there a lot of losses? [We produce more electric current with: 1) thermal panels then conversion with a Stirling engine coupled to an alternator or 2) photovoltaic solar panels then inverter]

I hope I am posting to the right place. If not, please excuse me.

hi, at the time, the whispergen runs on fuel, I imagine gas, and produces electricity and hot water, runs a washing machine and was worth 20.000 €, distributed only in england: at the time .. .

Bonjour à tous :D

All new on this forum I see that there are a number of us on the same tracks.
There is that in wood / stirling cogeneration http://www.kwb.at/fr/index.php?option=c ... Itemid=133

Buy the complete boiler (at what price)?
Decouple to solar panels in summer?

In short, work to do (drawing)

Ah not bad here is the manufacturer's site: http://www.stirlingpowermodule.com/

Stirling wood, KWB SPM kit:

Austrians apparently ... it seems more "serious" than the sun machine models ... On the other hand, no news for more than 18 months ... : Evil:

And this does not give me much confidence in terms of deadlines:

- How much experience do you have in dealing with Stirling engines?

- Winning the business plan competition "UNIUN" in December 2001 proved extremely encouraging. We patented the basic idea in March 2003 and the SPM company was then established in November 2003. The partners KWB, Stanzel & Ptak have decades of experience in plant engineering, the energetic utilization of biomass and in the construction and distribution of biomass combustion units.
