Ground-source heat pump cooling systems in temperate cities - Case study: Mexico City

摘要

This paper addresses the viability analysis of using a ground-source heat pump (GSHP) system to supply part of the cooling requirements in an office building located in a city with temperate climate. The analysis includes the technical and economic feasibility, as well as the greenhouse gases emission reduction achieved by implementing this technology. The building used in this study has an annual electricity consumption of 2.7 GWh and a cooling space of 18000 m~2.
