Ground-source heat pumps.

Author(s) : HALOZAN H.

Summary

The potential for reducing world-wide CO2 emissions assuming a 30% share of heat pumps in the building sector using technology presently available is about 6% of the total world-wide CO2 emissions. With advanced future technologies in power generation, in heat pumps and in integrated control strategies up to 16% seem to be possible (Gilli and Halozan, 2001). Therefore, heat pumps, and especially ground-source heat pumps, are one of the key technologies for energy conservation, increasing the efficiency, increasing the share of renewables and reducing CO2 emissions.
