Trends in heat pump technology in Denmark.

Summary
Since 2010, the Danish government has been working with the goal of making Denmark independent of coal, oil, and gas by 2050. The plan is to produce enough renewable energy to cover Danish energy consumption, and energy production is, therefore, undergoing a transition that also strives to obtain a stable and secure energy supply. The conversion follows two overall strategies: 1. To increase the proportion of renewable energy and 2. To ensure energy efficiency improvements. An increased electrification with, among other things, wind turbines as well as the installation of many small and large heat pumps for households and collective district heating for space heating and domestic hot water constitute important elements in the conversion. The invasion of Ukraine has caused the demand for heat pumps in Denmark to explode. In Denmark, work is being done to develop and use new heat pump technology - with a particular focus on high temperatures for industrial processes - to replace oil and gas. Focus is also put on flexible control of both small and large installations depending on electricity prices. Most of the large heat pumps use ammonia or CO2 as refrigerant.
