Objective
The scientific & technical objectives of this research proposal concern the development of aenvironmentaly friendly solar energy assisted heat pump system using water as refrigerant. Apart from the elimination of any direct environmental impact, the use of water as refrigerant leads to a substantial reduction of energy consumption and CO2-emmision (approx. 60%), compared to a traditional plant using artificial refrigerants. With 30.000 heat pumps in Denmark and approximately 500,000 operating under similar climatical conditions in Europe, this means an annual saving potential of 210 MECU on an European scale. Research is required to combine the technologies of water vapour compression and solar energy heating systems developing the optimum design of the complete plant concept. This includes among other things research and development on a low temperature operating solar collector, a combined energy storage tank / evaporator for extreme vacuum operation and a control system, securing a reliable plant operation.
