Summary

With the increasing demand for reducing CO2 emissions, reliable and environmentally friendly energy systems are vital for a green future. Heat pumps offer an efficient option to reduce greenhouse gas emissions caused by heating and cooling. Heat pump units are an excellent way to distribute heat while decreasing electricity consumption. Selecting the right refrigerant is vital to meet the F-gas regulations. Conventional refrigerants have a significant global warming potential and will be banned soon by the F-gas regulation. Hydrocarbons have better thermodynamic properties to increase the efficiency of the system. The energy system in operation at Teknobyen, an office complex located in Trondheim, Norway, uses propane and CO2 heat pump units to meet the heating and cooling demands of the building. This versatile unit ensures optimal energy usage and maintains a pleasant environment regardless of the season. This paper further explains the energy system; some measured field data are shown for selected days.
