Summary

As a part of the review process of the EU Ecodesign and Eco Labelling Regulations, project EcoTest was carried out in order to evaluate the standards used for assessing the efficiency of space, combination and sanitary hot water heaters and to issue recommendations to the relevant CEN Technical Committees. Within the project, all technologies with their respective standards covered by the Regulations for the aforementioned products, including some emerging technologies, were assessed in a series of round robin tests performed by accredited laboratories Europe wide. Heat pumps, as one of the acknowledged key technologies in the process of decarbonisation of heat generation in buildings, had a prominent place within the project. Four different electrically driven heat pumps were tested in a series of round robin tests following the latest versions of the relevant standards. In the present paper, selected findings of the project regarding the methodology of the standards, the reproducibility itself and influence of different parameters on the reproducibility of the methods are shown and discussed.
