Dynamic Characteristics of Industrial Heat Pump Operation: A modeling study

In order to reach the goals of the Paris Agreement, global emissions must decrease at a high rate. Looking at the industrial sector, the largest share of energy is used for process heating, with fossil fuels as its primary source. A way to improve the energy efficiency and reduce the emissions of process heating is by the integration of heat...

Simulating the flexibility potential of demand response with heat pumps in the Netherlands

The growth of electricity generated by renewables increases the intermittency of the Dutch electricity production. To deal with this, the Dutch power system requires a higher amount of flexibility in the future. Demand response with heat pumps is one of the options with a high potential to provide flexibility, because it offers the potential to...
