Modelling framework for integration of large-scale heat pumps in district heating using low-temperature heat sources

The paper presents a modelling framework that may be used to plan the integration of large-scale HPs in district heating (DH) areas. By use of the methodology both optimal HP capacities to be installed and optimal choice of heat source to be used during the year are identified by minimizing total co...
