LOW CARBON HEATING SYSTEM

At any moment, the sun emits about 3.86 x 1026 watts of energy.

The sun sends the earth 174,000 terawatts of free energy - every day.

It makes sense to use this gift of nature to heat and cool our buildings.


ENERGY-EFFICIENT HEATING

Highest available efficiency - 4 units of heat energy for every 1 unit of electricity

Helps to achieve a better energy certification rating when your property is assessed(BREEAM, LEED, DGNB)

Efficient heating for new-builds or refurbishments


REDUCED HEATING BILLS

Heat pumps can provide significant annual savings compared to natural gas, oil or LPG30-75% saving on running costs (depending on your current heating fuel)

Grants and efficiency will reward you for ‘going green’

Low maintenance – no gas supply, no chimney, no safety inspection necessary


LOW CARBON HEATING

Air and ground source heat pumps can act as your individual contribution to the commitment to source 20% of European energy from renewable sources by 2020

Heat pumps offer up to 50% CO2 savings compared with fossil-fuelled systems

Full Eco-design compliance (energy class A+++/A++)


SOLUTION THAT SAVE YOU MONEY –FOR YEARS TO COME

No matter how large or complex your system, heatpumps will return 100% of your initial investment in 5 to 10 years.

From then onwards, your heat pump will be providing your business with a constant supply of endlessly renewable energy and increasing profitability. All day, every day, for as long as the system lasts.

In terms of total life cycle cost (LCC) of your system, nothing can beat a heat pump. Period.


WHAT CAN A HEAT PUMP CAN DO FOR YOU?HEATING

Radiators Floor heating Fan coils Air heater

• Heating systems usually based on radiators and/or hydronic floor heating. The output temperature of the water distribution system is usually 30-35°C for floor heating and 45-55°C for radiators.

• Whether a new-build or retrofit project, Thermia heat pumps provide heating regardless of the temperature required in the heating system.


WHAT CAN A HEAT PUMP CAN DO FOR YOU?DOMESTIC HOT WATER

• To maintain comfort hot water must be produced fast so that no one needs to wait. And all this at the lowest possible operating cost.

• Thermia has developed technologies that rapidly produce hugeamounts of hot water without consuming extra energy: TWS – TapWater Stratification and HGW – Hot Gas Water heaters.

WHAT CAN A HEAT PUMP CAN DO FOR YOU?COOLING YOUR BUILDING

• With all ground source heat pumps, it is possible to cool the building with passive cooling at a very low cost. Should passive cooling not be sufficient, Thermia heat pumps are able to produce extra, active cooling by using the compressor.

• Passive or active cooling is significantly more efficient than traditionalair conditioning units.

WHAT CAN A HEAT PUMP CAN DO FOR YOU?HEATING YOUR POOL

• Heat your swimming pool using using a heat pump. You have probably found that without heating your pool is often too cold to enjoy, especially in spring and autumn.

• Heating your pool will allow you to enjoy it all season, perhaps all year round, thereby increasing the return on your sizable investment.

Heat pumps take energy from the ground (boreholes) and suppy heat to: • Heating system (radiator or

floor heating)• Domestic Hot Water• Pool• Cooling (Passive or Active)


SUPPORTED FUNCTIONSPASSIVE COOLING VS ACTIVE COOLING

Passive Cooling: heat is dumped into the ground via circulation pumps and buffertank or exchanger

Active Cooling: when passive cooling is not enough compressor run to meet demandfrom cooling supply line temperature


SUPPORTED FUNCTIONSHEATING AND COOLINGAND EXHAUST AIR AND PROCESS HEAT

Heat pumps take energyfrom:• The ground (boreholes) • Exhaust air• Process heat

and suppy heat and coolingto: • Heating system (radiator or

floor heating)• Domestic Hot Water• Pool• Cooling (Passive or Active)


BUSINESS CASE – EXHAUST AIR AT APARTMENTS

Making use of the energy:

Install a heat pump solution and use the exhaust air as energy source - install a heat pump in the basement and an air/brine heat exchanger on the roof and connect these with two brine water pipes

Connecting the heat pump to the existing heating system:

• The heat pump will produce both domestic hot water as well as heating for the hydronic heating system. An exhaust air heat pump will normally cover ~50% of the energy demand with suggested solution

• Connecting to the current system - the heat pump will be connected to the existing heating system (District heating or gas/oil), The heat pump controller will communicate with the existing heating system


BUSINESS CASE – EXHAUST AIR AT APARTMENTS

Example with a block of flats with 10.000 m2

Current yearly energy consumption:

• Heating: 2.100.000 kWh• Domestic hot water: 700.000 kWh• Total: 2.800.000 kWh

Utilising the energy from exhaust air with a heat pump in combination with existing district energy:

• Heating: 1.500.000 kWh• Domestic hot water: 200.000 kWh• Total: 1.700.000 kWh

Realized savings vs. existing solution: 1,1 mio kWh ~ 730.000 SEK/year

Estimated cost to establish solution: 1,7 mSEK

Simple pay-back time: 2-3 years

Huge savings and very short pay back


BUSINESS CASE –HSB Arvika Housing Association

Energy savingsEnergy delivered by heat pump 1 009 774 kWhBack-up heater 3 870 kWhEnergy consumed by heat pump 281 286 kWhSavings 728 488 kWh

72 % is green, renewable energy28 % is electrical energy to run the heat pumps

CO2 reductionHeating from district heating gives 127 500 tones of CO2Heating by heat pumps gives 4192 tones of CO2

97 % of CO2 is reduced*

Financial savings – 65 000 Euro„…the housing association can also save up to 65 000 Euro on each heating season. …since November 2015, and by December 2015 we had already saved close to 12 000€ compared to the same period the previous year.’ –says Anders Johansson from housing association

*All calculations made on https://co2.myclimate.org ; the reason for this low emission rate is that 83 per cent of electricity production in Sweden comes from nuclear and hydroelectric power (green energy)
