Energy-saving with a gas engine-driven heat pump
Since May, 1978, a block of flats in Dortmund, Western Germany, has had heating and hot water supplied by an air-to-water heat pump driven by a gas engine. Capacity is 465 kW and the unit has been able to provided this service unaided by supplementary heating with external temperatures as low as — 12 °C. How the installation has performed in use, saving 50 per cent of primary energy compared with conventional methods, is explained here by technical officers of the Dortmund Public Works Department.
