A novel modular solar air source heat pump system (SOLARIS)
Start date: Mar 1, 2009, End date: Feb 28, 2011,
"There are 195 million households in Europe whose combined domestic heating needs account for 26% of Europe’s energy demand and 500 billion tonnes of CO2 emissions annually. Reducing this will be important if Europe is to achieve ambitious emission reduction targets, reduce its excessive reliance on imported energy and the decrease costs to households and industry. The most effective way to decent ...
