1 Foreword The deliverable “D4.3 Concept for evaluation of CO2-reduction potential” contains information on how to compare heat pump systems with conventional technologies like coal, oil or gas heating systems. By this comparison it is possible to calculate the CO2e1-emission and PE reduction potential from different heat pump systems compared to other heating systems. The evaluation method for comparing the heat pump system with conventional heating systems will be focused on the following three parameters:
• CO2e-emissions • Primary Energy (PE) demand • TEWI (Total Equivalent Warming Impact)
In all three methods, the effect over the lifetime of the product is chose, even if the CO2e-emisions and PE requirements of course also can be expressed per year.

1 CO2e, Carbon dioxide equivalent is a quantity that describes, for a given mixture and amount of greenhouse gas, the amount of CO2 that would have the same global warming potential (GWP), when measured over a specified timescale (generally, 100 years). The carbon dioxide equivalency for a gas is obtained by multiplying the mass and the GWP of the gas.

3 Calculation methodology The calculation methodology outlines the calculation procedure for calculating the CO2e-emissions and energy demands of the different heating systems according the defined system boundaries of the life cycle assessment. The comparison of the different systems is focused on the PE demand and the global warming impact (Figure 1).
Figure 1: comparison of the systems
3.1 LCA life cycle assessment The approach of the life cycle assessment is to show the annual CO2e-emissions and energy demands of the compared heating systems (heat pump, gas, oil, coal, …) and also the impact on global warming during the whole lifetime of the systems. For a detailed introduction on LCA, please refer to [6]. In this work, we restrict the LCA to the use phase of the heat pump and the recovery of the refrigerant. The functional unit in this work is chosen to be one kWh of useful energy delivered to the building.
3.1.1 System boundary description In Figure 2 a schematic picture of the life cycle of a heat pump is shown, from the production to the end of life phase. The production phase will not be analyzed in the curse of the IEE project SEPEMO. Other studies have shown that the emissions related to the production of the heating equipment as well as the end of life phase is small compared to the emissions during the user phase, including the fuel production for the impact categories included in this study. Thererfore the focus will be on the user phase concerning the CO2e-emissions and the primary energy (PE) demand. Additionally the TEWI method will be used for calculations of the emissions of CO2-

eqvivalents during the whole operating time of the system, including the recycling of the refrigerant at the end of life phase.
Figure 2: heat pump life cycle
3.1.2 Use phase The emissions of CO2e and the PE demand will be calculated for the “use phase” of the unit and will enable the comparison of heat pump system and other heating systems by allowing for the calculation of the CO2e-emission- and PE reduction potential. Figure 3 shows the system boundary for calculating the annual CO2-emissions and the PE demand.

3.1.3 Life time - TEWI The concept of Total Equivalent Warming Impact, or TEWI, was developed as a comparative index of the global warming impacts of an end use application by accounting for both the direct contributions from refrigerants and blowing agents to the atmosphere and the indirect contributions from energy consumption [1]. The TEWI is normally evaluated over the lifecycle of the product. To get more information on the long term impact on CO2-emissions during the “life time” of the units, the TEWI will be calculated according to the standard EN 378-1 [3]. This shall result in an easy to handle analysis of the different systems (Figure 4). The TEWI provides an estimation of the CO2e-emissions, where the direct (by loss of refrigerant) and indirect emissions (produced during the generation of the necessary electricity for driving the system) in the life time of a heat pump are taken into account. It is used for the estimation of the total contribution of the heat pump to the greenhouse effect. This calculation procedure can be extended for gas-, oil-, and coal heating systems, as described in chapter 3.2.4.

3.2 Validation process for heating systems The validation process for heating systems describes how to get from the measured usable energy over the final energy to the PE demand and the CO2e-emissions. The heat pump systems will be compared regarding to these specifics with common heating systems. In the graph below the usable energy is supposed to be the same for all compared heating systems.

In Figure 5 the validation process is visualized and it can be seen that in order to calculate values for the final energy, the PE and CO2-emissions there is a need for an input of different factors, coefficients and efficiencies related the system. These parameters for calculation are described in chapter 4. The starting point for each calculation will be the measured usable energy. For other heating systems than heat pumps, the AE of boiler systems should account for electricity consumption which participates to lower the AE (fan of the gas burner, pump, electronics …). A description of such effects can be found in e.g. Ecodesign ENER Lot 1 [8].
3.2.1 Final Energy Consumption The final energy consumption of the different heating systems will be calculated based on the measured usable energy and the different efficiencies of the systems. For common heating systems the annual efficiency (AE) will be taken for the calculation (Equation 1). These systems will need more final energy than usable energy is delivered to the system as the AE is < 1.
Equation 1
The final energy for heat pumps will be calculated with the seasonal performance factor SPF ( Equation 2). As the SPF is >1 the final energy demand will be lower than the usable energy demand.
Equation 2
3.2.2 Primary Energy demand The annual PE demand can be calculated on the basis of the final energy and PE factor fp of the different energy carriers of the different systems (Equation 3).
Equation 3
3.2.3 CO2-emissions Similar to the annual PE demand the yearly CO2e-emissions can be calculated on the basis of the final energy and the CO2-emission coefficient К of the different energy carriers of the different systems (Equation 4).
Equation 4
Depending on the literature source, K includes also other greenhouse gases, not only CO2. The K-values from both EN15603 and GEMIS [10] includes both the combustion and the fuel preparation steps.

3.2.4 TEWI The Total Equivalent Warming Impact for comparing heat pump systems to common heating systems will be calculated for an assumed operating time of 20 years before the equipment goes to waste treatment or recycling. The difference between calculating the TEWI for heat pumps and the other systems will be mainly the fact that for other systems there is no contribution to the GWP via leakage of refrigerant as these systems do not use refrigerants. The needed parameters for calculating the TEWI are summed up in Table 1.

Table 1: Factors for calculation of the TEWI
Calculating the TEWI according to EN 378 the parts of direct and indirect CO2e-emission are split up into: (Equation 5).
Equation 5
The direct global warming potential of a heat pump is caused by the losses of refrigerant during its life time and the recovery losses during the disposal of the heat pump (Equation 6).
Equation 6
The indirect global warming potential is caused by the final energy demand of the heating system during its life time (Equation 7).
Equation 7
The TEWI for oil, gas and coal heating systems is equal to the indirect global warming impact, as there are no direct emissions of refrigerant. ( Equation 8).

4 Parameters for calculation To analyse and compare the heat pump systems to common heating systems concerning ecological aspects the efficiency of the systems and the ecological parameters of the different energy sources have to be defined.
4.1 Efficiency of the systems The Seasonal Performance factor and the annual efficiency define the system efficiency calculated for the period of one year of operation. For the comparison the same system boundary has to be taken into account. In the SEPEMO deliverable D4.2 the system boundary SPFH3 has been defined for comparing heat pump systems to common heating systems [5].
Figure 6: energy flow chart for the heating mode SPFH3
4.1.1 Heat pump systems - SPF The heat pump performance has to be calculated according to the system boundary SPFH3 in D4.2 [5] with the measured data collected during the field measurements.
4.1.2 Common systems - AE The calculation of the performance of heating systems using gas, oil or coal heating is done with the annual efficiency AE of the different heating systems (Table 2).

4.2 Primary energy use parameter For comparing the heat pump systems to boiler systems based on fossil fuels the PE factor PEF will be used, and for analysing the greenhouse gas emissions the CO2-emissions coefficient will be used.
4.2.1 Primary energy factor pf
The PE factor pf is defined as PE demand per final energy ( Equation 9).
Equation 9
According to EN 15603:2008 the PE is described as energy that has not been subjected to any conversion or transformation process. The PE includes non-renewable energy and renewable energy. If both are taken into account it can be called total PE [2].
Total primary energy factor PEFT
The PEFT for a given energy carrier takes into account the non-renewable- and renewable PE divided by final energy. The total PE is defined as the required energy to supply one unit of delivered energy, taking account of the energy required for extraction, processing, storage, transport, generation, transformation, transmission, distribution, and any other operations necessary for delivery to the building in which the delivered energy will be used [2]. PEFT is normally always >1 if comparisons are made based on LHV. One exception is PEFheat for a heat pump solution that might be <1 if SPF is larger than the losses in the electricity production.
Non-renewable primary energy factor PEFR
Using the PEFR only the non-renewable PE is considered and divided by the final energy. The non-renewable energy is defined as the required energy to supply one unit of delivered energy, taking account of the non-renewable energy required for extraction, processing, storage, transport, generation, transformation, transmission distribution, and any other operations necessary for delivery to the building in which the final energy will be used [2]. Using renewable energy sources or use of industrial excess heat the PEFR can be <1.

4.2.2 CO2-emission coefficient К The CO2-emission coefficient К describes for a given energy carrier the quantity of CO2 emitted to the atmosphere per unit of delivered energy ( Equation 10). The CO2 emission coefficient also includes the equivalent emissions of other greenhouse gases (e.g. methane)

4.2.3 Comparison of data sources One reason that emission data from different sources differs are the use of different system boundaries. It is a problem that the process many times is treated as a black box which makes it difficult for the user to know what sub processes, efficiency values, allocations etc. the data set is based on. In Table 5 below data from two different sources, EN 15603 [2] and GEMIS 4.7 [10], are compared. As can be seen the values from GEMIS are in general some percent lower. Especially for electricity there is a big difference between the two data sources.

4.3 Technical parameters For calculating the Total Equivalent Warming Impact TEWI according to EN 378, additional technical information concerning the used refrigerant in the heat pump, the leakage rate and the recovery rate are needed.
4.3.1 GWP(100) of refrigerants The GWP(100) defines the global warming potential of a substance, in this case a refrigerant, in relation to the global warming potential for CO2 for the time of 100 years. Table 6 shows the GWP according to EN378 of the most common used refrigerants.

R410A 1980
R404A 3780
R290 3
R744 1
Table 6: GWP(100) for common refrigerants [3]
4.3.2 Leakage rate The leakage rate gives information on the refrigerant losses per year. Based on information assembled from ARI member companies, the maximum residential heat pump and air conditioner annual leak rates of 4% of the charge for 1996 equipment and 2% per year for equipment available in 2005 can be used for the calculations [1, 9].
4.3.3 Recovery rate The recovery rate shows how much refrigerant will be lost during the disposal of the system after life time. According to the AFEAS TEWI III study the recovery rate can be assumed at 85 %2 for heat pump systems [1].
2 This is a technical potential. Manufacturers claimed 90 to 95 % feasible. In the F gas revision study, a 30 % value is used.

Additionally to the conventional heating systems the measured heat pump system is compared to the average SEPEMO heat pump. In the curse of the IEE project SEPEMO the different heat pump technologies like A/A, A/W, B/W, W/W and DX/W will be measured. The average SPF of the different technologies can be calculated to point out the efficiency and the ecological impact of the individual measured heat pump compared to the average and the conventional systems.
5.3 Example diagrams Based on the results of the calculation in chapter xx the results can be shown as in the following figures, Figure 8 to Figure 12.
Figure 8: annual PE demand
Figure 9: annual CO2e-emissions
To point out the PE reduction potential of the different systems in Figure 10 the PE reduction potential is calculated based on the emissions of the oil heating system.

Figure 10: annual PE reduction potential
Based on the CO2-emssions of the different heating systems the CO2-emission reduction potential can be calculated. In Figure 11 the emission reduction potential is calculated based on the emissions of the oil heating system. The negative reduction potential of the coal systems means that the coal heating systems has no reduction potential compared to the oil system, but causes more CO2-emission.
Figure 11: annual CO2-emission reduction potential
In Figure 12 the systems are compared concerning there total global warming potential during the life time of the systems. The GWPdirect of the heat pump systems is very small compared to the GWPindirect.
