1. Aarhus, Denmark

Second biggest city in Demark, having Climate Plan 2012-2015: increased use of heat pumps,

replace boilers with heat pumps in existing buildings

Project: Social Housing,Pilevangen in Solbjerg, Århus.

Details:

• ”Building of the year 2011” in the housing category in the magazine BYGGERI.

• The houses range from 80m2 to 114m2, construction finished in 2011

• Partly financed by the city and with rent-control

• 43 houses with remarkably low energy consumption- more energy produced than consumed

• The heating and comfort equipment produce 15.1 kWh per m2/year

• Integration of heat pumps:

• The houses are equipped with air to water heat pumps, floor heating, air ventilation system and solar cell

systems which both save and also produce energy

• Water heat pumps supply both domestic hot water and water for space heating

• HPs as a crucial tool to achieve the very strict building regulation coming into force in 2015.

• The use of HPs is very beneficial in the so-called energy frame calculation to meet the regulations

“A building project that really shows the way for future residential development in the fossil-free society.”

3. Bardolino, Italy

Project: Aqualux Hotel, an eco-friendly 4 star hotel. Area of 17,000 m2, 113 rooms, 33 suites, 7 swimming pools

and fitness centers

• Aqualux is a Climahotel with high environmental standards certified by Casa Clima Italian agency

• Heating systems using geothermal energy and other technical installations of the hotel contribute to high energy

efficiency

Details:

Minimized energy consumption and CO2 emissions into the atmosphere because of :

• the reduction of energy requirements

• the exploitation of renewable energy sources

• the installation of high energy efficiency plants

Integration of Heat Pumps:

• 2 water source multipurpose INTEGRA units ERACS2 WQ-1902 which produce heating and cooling

simultaneously

• 40% of the total request of hot water is produced by a solar thermal plant (140 m²) which also transfers energy

to the low temperature heating system.

• The cold fluid production for the air-conditioning, the partial production of sanitary hot water and the heating of

swimming pools came therefore through water source multipurpose geothermal heat pumps.

Only one unit responds to both needs simultaneously reduces running costs by reducing the total cost of

the plant life cycle, with the quickest payback of initial investment.

4. Brugge, Belgium OCMW Bruges owns several residential care centers, nursing homes and other public buildings.

Investment in low-energy buildings to achieve:

• Energy savings

• Educate the private and public sector about low-energy solutions

The use of heat pump technology is at the core of this initiative

2011: WZC De Vliedberg: a 11.500m2- residential care center which contains a nursing home for 96 elderly people

and operates as a day care center with an additional 35 service-flats

Details:

• Floor heating and floor cooling

• A monovalent installation consisting of a sole heat pump requires high capacity and has not proven

economically feasible

• The heat pump serves as a base load (heating capacity of 325kW and a cooling capacity of 265kW)

• A condensing gas boiler of 530kW assists in the case of a peak demand and serves as a back-up

• Hot tap water is provided by a gas boiler after a pre-heating by the heat pump system

• The average performance of the heat pump system is increased by adding a relatively high temperature source

in the winter and a cold source in the summer

The system reduces the primary energy usage of both heating and cooling. Economic estimations show a

simplified payback time of 10,3 years and an internal rate of return of 20% at 20 years. The back-up gas

boiler makes the installation highly reliable.

9. Tallinn, Estonia Project: Seaplane Harbour (Lennusadam). It is a museum of naval history of Estonia.

Details:

• It uses seawater heat through heat exchanger and heat pumps deliver the heat to the hangars

• The same system works also as a cooling system on summer season.

The open sea heating contains:

– 2 storey sea heating chambers

– a water-water heat pump (161,6kW + 125,1kW + 107,5kW; total 394,2 kW)

– electrical heaters (180kW), a heating boiler (120kW),

– heat accumulation tanks (2x2000L) and heating and ventilation system pipes

Integration of heat pumps:

• 3 heat pumps differed by the output power connected in cascade system -> they create a whole unit.

• The Heat pumps automatic control system is directing circluations pumps, electric heating boilers, compressors, seawater

pumps and cooling system.

• The heat pumps are the main connection between the seawater heat exchanger and the hangars heating system

The outstanding feature of using the seawater for heating is unique in Estonia. Also the system is open – not using

collectors (pipelines) in aquatic area of the port or far from the coastline. The environmental side of the project is also

not less important, as this is a form of a renewable source of energy and therefore its overall costs to the eco-system

are lower.

10. Villa Real, Portugal

Project: School building of 2.100 m2.

• Use clean energy through ground and solar exchange and to produce most of the energy needed

• The funding of the project comes from the European Regional Development Fund

Details:

• Hybrid system, with

• 83, 6 kW water to water Heat Pump

• a natural gas 150 kW boiler to be used as backup mainly

• 30 m2 solar panels.

• The distribution of heating and cooling is made trough a radiant floor system and Recovery Air Treatment Units with

thermal correction.

• 9 geothermal holes of 50 meters each will provide a basic ground temperature for the system

Integration of heat pumps:

• The system has three major components: a heat pump, an earth connection and an interior heating or cooling

distribution system

• The heat pump transfers the heat between the heating/cooling distribution system and the Earth connection. It is the

basic building block of the GSHP system

• The earth connection is where heat transfer between the GSHP system and the soil occurs

• The heating/cooling distribution system delivers heating or cooling from the heat pump to the building. In this case

water loop systems were used, which heat or cool floors

The use of this technology in Portugal is not very common. Since this building is a school it can become a case

study for other public buildings in regional and national level.
