The advantage of running a direct expansion CO₂ heat pump with solar-and-air simultaneous heat sources: experimental and numerical investigation

Dual-source solar-air heat pumps represent a promising solution for overcoming the limitations associated with single-source utilization, thereby enhancing heat pump performance. However, running the heat pump by alternatively employing the more advantageous source requires the integration of a controller capable of continuously monitoring...

Risk-averse Estimation of Electric Heat Pump Power Consumption

An important aspect of the energy transition is the expected grid impact due to the abrupt increase of distributed electric generation and electric load demand. A part of this impact is going to be inflicted by the electrification of heating with heat pumps (HPs). Therefore, it is essential that the future power consumption of electric...
