Heat pumps and thermal storage for domestic dwellings.

Number: 0460

Author(s) : HEWITT N. J., KAMKARI B., KEATLEY P.

Summary

IEA HPT Annex 55 Comfort and Climate Box aligned with the UKRI funded Comfort and Climate Box to review the challenges and research necessary to deliver at scale heat pump and thermal storage solutions for single family homes across the partnering nations. Building on the deliverables to IEA HTP Annex 55, an updated review of the state of the art is presented here and how that was implemented in a small sample trial in social housing in Northern Ireland. Early results of this field trial indicate strong participant satisfaction with the air source heat pump and thermal store with reduced heating costs when allied to a modest upgrade to building thermal fabric i.e., improved glazing, insulation etc. and larger hydronic radiators to facilitate lower temperature heat delivery.
