Peter Breuhaus, Energy Department of International Research Institute of Stavanger
Østre Hageby• 66 residential units
• 6 800 m²
• Low‐temperature heating system
• Lower installation costs due to smaller pipe systems
• Learnt from the Lystrup project in Aarhus, Denmark
Supply: 55 °CReturn: 35 °C

Measurements• Monitored at Nibe Uplink via an internet connection
• Measured available data are based on standard instrumentation only
• Able to keep track of the compressor work rate
• Electricity consumption and delivered heat are measured

Please mind the gap
Heating delivered Heat pumps
• Heat pumps do most of the work
• Electrical boilers sometimes necessary to compensate for the peak demand
• Gaps are explained by adjustment issues

Energy consumption
Total = 194 620 kWh
Heat pump = 170 588 kWh
Electric boiler = 24 033 kWh
61 % reduction in energy, when compared to an all‐electricity based solution
Conclusion• First 4th gen. in Norway
• Operating reliably for 2.5 years
• 40 % lower energy consumption pr. m²
• Greener choice than all‐electric solutions
• Downside is lack of more exact measurements

Excerpt from Eurostat, 2nd half of 2016
• Norwegian electricity prices amongst the lowest in Europe, but are expected to increase (hopefully!)
• Planning energy solutions for the future's retirement homes
• Combining:4th and 5th gen. district heatingGeothermal energyImproved heat recovery systemsHybrid solar panels (PV‐T)New hybrid legionella preventing technology
