Abstract
The purpose of this study is to compare the performance of the GHP with an (Electric Heat Pump) EHP and an electric chiller coupled with a boiler in terms of management costs and environmental impact. The analysis is performed with reference to cold and warm thermal load required by two different cases of study: a shopping centre and a hotel. Specific environmental temperature profiles are proposed for each month in order to estimate efficiencies variation. The performance comparison takes place in a representative day of every month for each load. Two price profile sub-scenarios are developed for each case study and the performance comparison is provided in terms of primary energy consumption, CO2 production and economic feasibility.
