SPF - Seasonal Performance Factor for Heat Pump Systems (completed)

This project aims to evaluate available methods to estimate the seasonal performance factors for heating system containing heat pumps as the dominating heating component. Differences between different methods and models are to be evaluated and any difference between them will be identified. Suggestion for a common base of estimating seasonal performance of heat pump system will be the final goal of the project.

The project is a collaboration between KTH, SP, and several industrial partners. The project is a part of the Swedish Energy Authority Effsys2 programme.
