2.7 GENERAL INFORMATION ON ENERGY USE AND HEAT
PRODUCTION
Buildings can be heated efficiently with condensing boilers and air to
water heat pumps. However, these two technologies have different
performance characteristics.
Condensing boilers as well as air to water heat pumps use energy gained
from fossil fuels. In condensing boilers, gas is burnt directly inside the
appliance.
Air to water heat pumps use electrical energy which has been obtained
from a number of different sources. This includes fossil fuel burning
power stations. These are typically around 40 % efficient in converting
fuel to useful electricity. Although an air to water heat pump is far more
efficient than a condensing boiler at converting its input energy
(electricity) into heat, the electricity used has a larger amount of fossil
fuel consumption attached. This consumption of fossil fuels is referred
to as the primary energy factor (PEF).
The PEF of electricity is generally 2.3, the PEF of oil and gas is 1.1, the
PEF of mixed electric power 2.6. The coefficient of performance (COP)
of an air to water heat pump is, subject to outside air temperature and
water flow temperature, between 2 and 5.5.
Depending on the current situation and heat demand, either the
condensing boiler or the air to water heat pump may offer a more
favourable energy-to-cost ratio.
The hybrid package integrates both technologies in one system and
thereby offers the opportunity to use either heat source optimally at any
time. Users can decide for themselves whether the emphasis should be
on primary energy consumption and/or whether costs take priority,
alternatively, a combination of primary energy and costs can be used.
