District heating and cooling networks and Heat pumps, air conditioning and refrigeration

Energy flows from district heating and cooling networks to heat pumps, air conditioning and refrigeration; energy flows from heat pumps, air conditioning and refrigeration to district heating and cooling networks.

District heating and cooling networks (energy) and Heat pumps, air conditioning and refrigeration (energy): 2 relationships.

How they are linked

1. Energy flow

Physical flow · Direct · District heating and cooling networks → Heat pumps, air conditioning and refrigeration

Booster heat pumps raise low-temperature network heat.

2. Energy flow

Physical flow · Direct · Heat pumps, air conditioning and refrigeration → District heating and cooling networks

Large heat pumps feed district networks.
