Over 50 new case studies since the beginning of the HPT Annex 62
The growing collection of the case studies is showing the diversification of implemented solutions, but above all it clearly demonstrates the versatility of heat pumps in multi-family buildings. From centralized solutions to heat pumps installed in each apartment, classic or new heat source concepts, in combination with other energy sources or all electric solutions. All that has been already implemented and can be an inspiration for other building owners or investors.
Examples show various solutions for the implementation of heat pumps in multi-family buildings. In large or small, newly built, refurbished, or left entirely as is, in large amounts of multi-family buildings, heat pumps are providing successfully already today heating, domestic hot water, and sometimes even cooling. In the Annex (Project) 62 “Heat pumps for multi-family residential buildings in cities” besides theoretical analyses of possible implementing solutions, the project partners have an ambitious goal to collect real examples of heat pumps working in multi-family buildings.
Ambitious gool reached
The partners working within the Annex 62 decided at the beginning of the project to reach an ambitious goal of adding two new case studies per month during the whole three years of the Annex duration. After 27 months of the Annex our counter shows exactly 54 new case studies added to the interactive map available for everybody with the following link. The examples are coming from several countries, not only from participating partners. Excellent examples are the new case studies from Canada.
