Author(s) : IEA HPC

Type of monograph: Report

Summary

Annex 23 (see also IIR Bulletin, ref. 1999 - 3295) has been set up to define the world market for single-room heat pumps that can heat (and possibly cool) rooms in buildings not equipped with a ducted central system. Particular emphasis is placed on heat pumps that perform efficiently in cold weather. Technologies and equipment used to space-condition single rooms are listed, as well as current research and promising alternatives. Recommendations are also made on technical and market-related issues to help market growth. Local fuel availability and fuel cost ratios dictate, to a great extent, the market for single-room heat pumps. Fuel costs are listed in each country by region.
