The IEA Technology Collaboration Programme on Energy in Buildings and Communities (IEA EBC TCP) and Annex 88 “Evaluation and Demonstration of Actual Energy efficiency of Heat Pump Systems in Buildings” are organizing the webinar series “How can we estimate actual energy performance of heat pump systems in buildings for better design?” to be held on Thursday October 24, 2024 and Friday November 8, 2024 at 12:00-13:30 GMT/UTC.
Many experts and policy makers may agree that heat pump is one of the most promising technologies for decarbonizing buildings. However, it seems that those engaged in the design and relevant standards of the heat pump systems have not obtained enough information on actual behaviour of the systems in order that we can certainly succeed in reducing energy consumption. For example, do we know how much energy efficiency (EER and COP) of the systems may be reduced under low part load ratio and how low the partial load ratio can be for heat sources? This webinar series is to share such existing technical problems and the way to solve by Annex 88, an international collaborative R&D project.
Participation in the webinar is free, but prior registration is required.
