Happening: an efficient cascade heat pump system for multifamily buildings.

Summary

An innovative hybrid heat pump system is presented as a novel solution for multifamily building heating system retrofitting. This system is very efficient on the one hand thanks to its innovative configuration in cascade, minimum thermal losses and on the other hand, the maximization of local solar energy self-consumption due to decoupling generation and consumption and applying smart control strategies. It is aimed at facilitating retrofitting of existing heating systems in multifamily buildings, enabling an efficient decarbonization. Three variations of the system have been designed, installed, and tested in real buildings across Europe, within the H2020 project “HAPPENING”. The project is now under monitoring phase and the preliminary results are positive, demonstrating the high efficiency of the concept.
