Résumé

This March 2014 report prepared for the US Department of Energy by Navigant Consulting identifies and evaluates 17 technologies which could potentially replace traditional vapour-compression technology in residential and commercial HVAC applications. It scores each on a number of criteria including energy saving potential, cost, complexity and likelihood of success. The authors specify that while this study focused on air-conditioning applications, many of the technologies investigated might also apply to refrigeration applications. While twenty-two technology options were considered, only stand-alone technologies were evaluated instead of those that are components of space-conditioning systems. The final ranking of technology options is as follows: Thermoelastic; Membrane heat pump; Evaporative liquid desiccant A/C; Magnetocaloric; Vuilleumier heat pump; Evaporative cooling; Thermoelectric; Ground-coupled solid desiccant; Absorption heat pump; Duplex-Stirling heat pump; Thermoacoustic; Adsorption Heat Pump; Thermotunnelling; Stand-alone solid desiccant A/C; Stand-alone liquid desiccant A/C; Ejector heat pump; Brayton heat pump.
