Summary
The most widely applied thermally-activated system is the absorption chiller, which is a cooling-only system used for air conditioning in large commercial buildings and for refrigeration in the food industry. Over 6000 absorption chillers are produced annually in Japan and a further 2000 in the USA. Many of them are imported. The market for gas engine heat pumping equipment is concentrated in Japan, where more than 30,000 units are sold annually. China is a rapidly developing market too.
