This seminar focuses on integrating large Delta T heat pumps into hybrid energy centres, commercial buildings, and heat networks. Key topics include:
The contrast between 1st generation and 2nd generation heat pumps.
High Delta T system design and optimized hybrid configurations.
Refrigerant evolution, F-Gas regulations, and safe application of natural refrigerants (such as propane).
Peak shaving, load shifting, and tariff optimization using thermal storage and electric boilers.
This CPD is designed for building services engineers, MEP consultants, heat network designers, energy managers, and sustainability professionals looking to optimize heat pump system performance, navigate refrigerant regulations, and lower carbon emissions in modern heating systems.
The seminar is designed to be informal and interactive, encouraging questions throughout. It typically runs for up to 1.5 hours (often held as a lunch-and-learn session), and SAV Systems provides supplementary reading materials after the session to reinforce key takeaways.
SAV Systems prefers hosting these sessions in person (e.g., at your office) to foster better face-to-face interaction, open discussion, and collaborative learning among project teams.
