Europe to Achieve Carbon Neutrality with Healthy Heat Pump Market Growth

The European air-to-water (ATW) heat pump market, which grew explosively during the period spanning 2020 to 2022, is currently facing various challenges. Issues are arising throughout the industrial process, including disruptions to production plans and supply chains as well as increased distribution inventory.
The explosive growth of the market a few years ago was the result of a combination of multiple factors, including governments’ decisions to phase out gas boilers in an effort to decarbonize and the provision of generous subsidies for electric heat pumps as an alternative clean heating device, along with concerns about gas supplies triggered by the Ukraine crisis.

Daikin: providing a complete HVAC system for an office building in Germany

Daikin supplied a Professional air handling unit (AHU) connected with VRV units with R-32 refrigerant using dedicated kits, to meet the ventilation, cooling and heating needs of a five-floor office building in Bochum, Germany. The ventilation system is centralised, with the AHU installed on the roof of the building.
One of the main focuses for the project was to ensure that the air handling unit was energy efficient and had low pressure drops. To meet these requirements, Daikin supplied a Professional Series ahu with additional components, in particular filters designed to minimise pressure drop. The unit was also selected for its low airflow speed design (1.28 m/s), which results in more efficient operation and lower energy consumption.

How to finance the European Union’s building decarbonisation plan
