Descrizione del progetto
Pompaggio di calore ad alta efficienza energetica negli edifici
Nonostante i progressi attualmente compiuti verso edifici e costruzioni sostenibili, i miglioramenti devono tenere il passo con la crescente domanda di servizi energetici. Oggi in Europa gli edifici rappresentano il 40 % della domanda di energia e il 36 % delle emissioni di CO2 legate all’energia. Ciò rende la decarbonizzazione del patrimonio edilizio europeo vitale per garantire che l’UE consegua i suoi obiettivi di protezione del clima. In quest’ottica, il progetto HAPPENING, finanziato dall’UE, sta sviluppando una soluzione basata su pompe di calore decentralizzate, facili da installare, poco invasive per gli occupanti dell’edificio e facilmente adattabili a un gran numero di situazioni edilizie diverse. Il progetto prevede l’introduzione di nuovi modelli finanziari e aziendali per garantire la competitività dei costi.
Obiettivo
Currently, buildings are responsible for 40 % of the energy demand and 36% of the CO2 emissions in Europe. Decarbonisation of existing buildings plays a key role in order to reach the overall climate protection targets. However, current renovation rates lie in the order of 1%.
Heat pumps are a key technology in bringing renewable shares into heat supply of buildings; especially their combination with onsite renewable electricity production e.g. by PV allows to bring high renewable shares. Their current installation in existing multi-apartment buildings is however still marginal.
The proposed technological solution is based on decentralized heat pumps, in such a way that it results an easy-to-install solution for installers, low-intrusive for the occupants and easily adaptable to a large number of different building situations. This is flanked by developing near-zero planning, implementation and operation processes, in order to facilitate the work during the planning phase, ensure a high-quality installation and effective operation, and reduce the efforts and costs within the whole retrofitting project. The challenge of cost-competitiveness is addressed by developing new financial and business models. Bringing new players (such as financial experts) and financing models to the renovation market is expected to bring the needed paradigm change and boost investments in the residential retrofitting sector. Dissemination of measured performance and system characteristics from HAPPENING will be one of the key results of the project.
Through 3 demo sites (Spain, Italy and Austria), the project will demonstrate a highly versatile, scalable and replicable solution package for buildings energy system retrofitting allowing 70-75% of renewable energy fraction, 30-50% of PE and GHG savings, reduction of planning time by 50% and installation/operation time by 30% and payback time for ESCOs and investors of less than 8 years, compared to best available solution existing today.
