Summary

The technology development of heat pumps in Asia and the Pacific Ocean states is summarized in this paper. In recent years of demand in this region, especially in China, the expansion of the air conditioner for residential and air conditioner for business use is remarkable. A climate varied from the cold district to the tropical zone is distributed, and moreover, a variety of heat pump equipment corresponding to the culture in each country are developed, and applied as for Asia and Pacific Ocean states. The use of the approach of the energy saving development, the load levelling of the equipment and utilizing the ground thermal energy has risen rapidly to secure the stable supply of energy, too. Recently, the argument of global warming measures has risen. This paper introduces the energy saving approach of the heat pump, reduction of the greenhouse gases emission and concerning the approach for recycling in each country.
