PURPOSE:To make a utilizing heat temperature level equal to a generated heat temperature level by converting heat generated at heat generating portions into a hydrogen gas which is chemical energy by a metal hydride, transporting the hydrogen gas, and reproducing the heat at heat utilizing portions. CONSTITUTION:A metal hydride filled in a metal hydride vessel 7A generates a hydrogen dissociation reaction by the supply of heat, and hydrogen generated is transported to a metal hydride vessel 9A within a heat reproduction unit 9 through a hydrogen pipeline 10A. The transported hydrogen reacts with a meal hydride 8 filled in the vessel 9A, the reaction heat is recovered through a heat medium pipeline 16, and supplied to a thermal load 5 via a heat storage tank 2. Simultaneously with the heat transport using the hydrogen gas, a heat medium is supplied from a low quality heat source to other metal hydride vessel 9B within the heat reproduction unit 9, and hydrogen is returned to the other metal hydride vessel 7B in the heat reproduction unit 7 via a hydrogen pipeline 10B. By successively changing the vessels 7A and 7B in the heat reproduction unit 7 over to the vessels 9A and 9B within the heat reproduction unit 9, heat collected by a heat collector 1 can be continuously transported to the thermal load 5. |
