The heat pump prototype and demonstration programme in Norway.

Summary

The paper presents the Norwegian authorities' aims and efforts towards introduction of heat pumps that use natural working fluids in addition to the results from operation of the R&D heat pump installations. The Heat Pump Prototype and Demonstration Programme has been going on since 1983, and up to now, about 50 heat pump demonstration installations have been given financial and technical support. In the last years heat pump plants with alternative working fluids to the CFCs have been supported. Natural working fluids like ammonia, water, carbon dioxide and propane seem to be most appropriate from an environmental point of view and will be preferred.
