The process of the geothermal heat pump The process of the geothermal heat pump systems in Hungarysystems in Hungary
2003 – first small and medium sized heat pump systems (20-50 units). – First regulations for closed-loop ground source heat pump
systems.– Harkány Thermal Spa: installed capacity – 2,2 MW.
2004 – larger heat pump systems with 100-300 kW capacity (50-100 units)
2005 – family houses, industrial buildings up to 300-600 kW capacity (150 units)
2006 – Office/business buildings up to 800 kW capacity (200 units) 2007 – Pannon GSM Mobile Office Building 960 kW, 180 GHETotal installed capacity: ~ 10 – 15 MW (the calculation based on
selling data because most of the heat pump systems have no license).
The distribution of the heat The distribution of the heat pump systems in Hungarypump systems in Hungary
Closed loop type: 60 %Open systems (groundwater): 25%Thermal water: 10 %Air-source heat pumps: 5%
There is big possibility for the multistage utilisation of the thermal water in Hungary.
The multistage utilization is supported by the Ground Heat Program (starting phase).
Conception: to enhance the proportional rate of thermal energy from 3,6 PJ to 10 PJ by 2013.
ENERGY PRICESENERGY PRICES
The implementing of the heat pump systems depends on the gas and electricity prices.– gas price: less than in the EU (price support)– electricity: at same level in the EU (no
preferential tariff for heat pump systems)
hindering ‘activity’ of very strong natural gas lobby
preferential electricity price is needed for heat pumps
The equalisation of the Hungarian and the EU gas-prices will increase the spreading of the heat pump systems in large scale
