Increase of Ecological and Economic Efficiency of Municipal Heat Supply by Using Heat Pumps
(original language – Ukrainian)
In the article the ecological and economic aspects of the use of heat pumps are investigated, the main conditions of their application in the system of municipal heat supply are considered. For the implementation of European norms and requirements in the field of heat supply it is recommended to use promising technologies and adhere to the principles of energy efficiency in the industry. The paper considers the problems of ensuring the efficiency of the domestic housing and utilities sector, among which the low energy efficiency of thermal energy and its high cost is isolated. The proposed options for the implementation of heat pump technology in the district heating system, analyzed the economic and environmental effects of the implementation, calculated the payback period of the typical heat pump plant, examples of successful involvement of heat pumps for heat supply in the EU countries.
Key words: heat pump, ecological and economic efficiency, public heat supply, energy resources.
